LC-green-today-06 
 Cork Nature Network have started a public awareness campaign called 'Green Today - Gone Tomorrow' to highlight the controversial Bus Connects plan to remove up to 200 trees at the junction of Churchyard Lane (Temple Hill) and the Boreenmanna Road, near Cork Constitution Rugby Club, O'Connors Funeral Home and Pairc Ui Rinn, Cork. Plans to remove trees from the disused Beaumont Quarry, now a public park at Ballintemple, are opposed by the nature group as well as local residents who say they will be subjected to increased levels of noise and light pollution and a lack of privacy if the proposals get the go-ahead. Tying yellow ribbons around one of the affected trees is Mags Cronin, Beamuont Boys NS Parents' Association, Sarah Rohu and Gill Weyman of Cork Nature Network, Carol Healy, local resident and UCC Ecology student Chloe Finn. YELLOW RIBBONS have been tied around affected trees in the area. Plans to tarmac a former walled-garden at the disused Charrington Resevoir nearby are also of concern as Bus Connects seeks to find more parking spaces in the area despite opposition.
