In my village in the Netherlands, a great amount of greenery has been eradicated in this last year. Gone are almost all the brambles with their delicious harvest, all we have now is grass, grass everywhere. Surrounding villages have the same problem: if it's green and could be cut down, it's now gone. I strongly suspect this is because the government has mandated a minimum amount of 'biomass' to be produced. God help us for the next year, we'll probably lose all the remaining trees.
