The following are only some of the cases that have been photographed. There are thousands of such incidents which go unreported in the city regularly.

10th July-2003, 4th Main Road, Jayanagar, Tree cut by BMP inspite of the court orders, on the ground of a request by a resident that the tree was old and dead.	Wilson Garden, July 2003, branches of a Rain tree being cut because according to the complainant, ".....the branches of the tree have encroached into our compound and lot of dry leaves droppings(sic) are taking place and make the place look dirty and untidy"
The Jayanagar case (above) - As the picture reveals the tree is far from being "dead". It also raises the question of verification of requests before blindly axing down trees.	In the Wilson Garden case, the tree had to pay the price inspite of being across the street and for "littering".

Scores of trees have been mercilessly chopped.	26th Aug, 2003 - A builder denudes a tree on the roadside opposite Pai Vijay Hotel, 4th Block, Jayanagar without permission to facilitate his construction
