wow that’s a lot of trees
that is a lot of Christmas trees
This is actually bad that they are taking more trees than they actually need. If the trees are real then the world has lost a lot
Real trees?
I love how creative these people are, and how they must have spent so much of their time to help the church and Homestart is just so benevolent! I do also feel rather bad because of the environmental impact this must have had, but the cause is just almost worthy of it.
this is terrible what are they gonna do with the trees through them away what a waste of trees why,we already chop down alot of trees and we just did a lot more what a waste
Are they cutting down the trees? It is very bad for the environment and decreases the population by quite a lot, whats more, these trees take a while to grow and they just cut them all down! I don’t mind knowing 1 family has 1 christmas tree each, because that isn’t greedy, but this?…
so many wasted trees 🙁
