Oak Trees are marvelously beautiful and extremely important creations of GOD. As stewards, we humans must strive to protect this wonderful tree species, and all other tree species for that matter. This world would really be a much less safer and beautiful place without trees. Please consider every single tree species and sub-species seriously, and be thankful to GOD for this priceless gift and creation.

Oak Trees should not be cut down unless they are dying.

Why not install a guard rail, instead?

I petition that cutting down live oaks over 75 or 100 y.o. should be against the law in all ACADIANA PARISHES and a fine imposed for negligent injury done to live oaks from negligent drivers or construction equipment. some of these trees were planted in precise locations LONG AGO... for an obvious reason.. investment or aesthetics ? Its an HISTORICAL INVESTMENT !! I challenge any genious to grow an antibellum oak from a sapling to antebellum maturity in his or her lifetime.. It should be a mortal sin to HACK such MAJESTY. PISSES ME OFF

This is a part of my little town that we still call home. Taking these trees will forever change the look of an area of Jeanerette that will never be the same.
