special training works in the opposite direction too. So what I'm saying is, that your special training as an arborist could cause a change of mind from preserving to removal. Indeed anyone can cut a tree down, but it is the reason WHY that counts.
For example, you see a apparently healthy tree with some small bodies of fungus on it. It's a fairly heavy tree and it's situation is between buildings and next to a school... You as a regular guy will say: wow that's a nice tree!!! and you don't see any harm in it. You're all for nature and you decide that this tree should be well maintained at all costs. But as an arborist, you see a potential deadly hazard, and those cute looking fungus bodies are for example Ganoderma Australe... You know what I mean?
