Unknown nature destroyers in Gatow: District office filed a complaint for tree vandalism

dozens of trees on the large bathing meadow deliberately damaged

In a shocking incident, almost 40 trees around the large bathing meadow in Gatow were deliberately damaged. The district office has filed a complaint against unknown perpetrators who are responsible for this nature destruction. The damage was discovered during the annual tree controls by employees of the street and green space office.

District City Councilor Thorsten Schatz comments on the situation: "The tall trees were drilled up to 35 centimeters deep and filled with liquid. To bring their death. Some trees even showed boring holes in which there were still drills. This nature destruction will not only cause significant additional costs for tree care, but also impair traffic safety. Dozens of trees are also affected around the bathing meadow.

It is important that such vandalism acts against nature are not tolerated. The trees on the large bathing meadow are an important part of the environment and contribute to the beauty of the community. The protection and preservation of these trees are of great importance to preserve the green oasis for future generations.
