About 5,000 years ago neolithic farmers committed an act of mass deforestation in the British Isles the likes of which this damned island has never recovered from.

As the ages passed, all each successive generation has done is further damage the ecosystem, and its biodiversity.

I'd try to undo some of that damage. By reforresting from shore to shit stained shore. Let new woods swallow the follies of the petty tyrants who turned rolling hills and green meadows to fetid slag heaps.
