In the city of the Dnieper (Ukraine) carry out a total pruning crowns of large established trees.

This practice exists also in Russia and Belarus. The photo shows the results of radical pruning. Before pruning it was quite healthy Tilia (45-50 years old). Our city government call this pruning of trees - "rejuvenating." We are fighting with the city government and prove that this method is harmful to the condition of trees in the city. This is especially dangerous for the steppe zone, where there is a surplus of solar radiation. After this pruning the condition of trees deteriorates, full crowns are not formed, which can give a shadow. Is carried out total pruning of crowns of large established trees in the cities of your country? How do environmentalists and local residents relate to this? What laws in your countries regulate the pruning of trees in cities?
