All the trees on the highways were cut down to lay roads and doesn't seem like any steps have been taken to replace those Greenaries in the city. Nowhere we could see trees within the city limit which is really bad for the city with so many businesses and natural pollution control (trees) - nowhere to be seen. Please take steps to restore the environment with greens and proper pollution control regulations.
