The fast-growing poplar tree, once beautiful, is now being questioned and criticized. Every spring, poplar catkins fly all over the sky, bringing endless troubles to the city.
The streets were completely dyed green, and the cars and homes were full of poplars, and the scene could be described as a mess. What's more serious is that poplar catkins pose a great threat to the health of some citizens, causing symptoms such as allergic rhinitis and asthma. Some sanitation workers have suffered even more, and they have to work hard day after day to clean up the poplars. It is imperative to completely remove fast-growing poplars and reverse the process of urban greening!
Over the years, fast-growing poplars have been the main force of urban greening due to their advantages of rapid growth and simple afforestation. However, with the enhancement of people's awareness of environmental protection, the great harm caused by this alien species to the ecosystem cannot be ignored. Fast-growing poplar causes great damage to the soil environment, not only seizing the living space of native tree species, but also affecting soil and water conservation. At the same time, the poplar catkins produced by it have brought a heavy burden to people's lives.
The complete removal of fast-growing poplar trees is indeed the only way to reverse the process of urban greening.
How to replace fast-growing poplars? We should promote species that have a comparable growth rate but do not have poplar pollution, such as the pear tree. We can vigorously develop native tree species, such as ginkgo, willow, locust tree, etc., which can not only add beautiful greenery to the city, but also better integrate with the local climate and soil.
Some exotic varieties such as plane trees are also good choices. Of course, when determining the tree species, all localities also need to make a reasonable assessment according to the actual situation to avoid "repeating the mistakes of the past" again.
It is also necessary to strengthen public education and education. In the past, due to
By focusing on the speed of afforestation, we have neglected the balance of ecosystems and paid a heavy price.
We need to raise awareness of biodiversity conservation, promote sustainable development, and strive to make every tree breathe life and vitality into the city.
Around the city, whether it is green trees or poplar catkins has become an urgent question for people's livelihood. It is hoped that the relevant departments will take early action and work hand in hand with the public to restore the city to a fresh and green landscape.
