I’ve renewed my membership of Forest and Bird every year since 1974. In 1996 I shut up more than half of my farmland for regeneration of native bush. I love trees.
But I despair when I hear the green idiots claim we’ll get more trees by telling people that if they let a tree grow on their land that part will become public reserve. For that is what the currrent law does, in effect. The proposed reform does not go far enough.
Most tree control provisions in local planning schemes effectively nationalise the tree and the land on which it grows a few years after planting, when it reaches a size that other people might enjoy. Without compensation you lose control of the tree and the land on which it grows, for the benefit of people who like to look at it.
The result? Wise folklore that says "dont plant trees". Certainly dont let anything grow to the expropriation point.
I would love to have planted native trees on our coastal land. In fact we did plant hundreds of native shrubs. They were largely killed by frost. When it came time to replace that failure we succeeded with mostly exotic species, especially flowering gums because they feed birds.
We’re lucky the natives did not grow. Because local planning rules "protect" native vegetation. We can’t afford the risk that if we grow natives we might not be allowed to clear building sites. Even if allowed we could have to pay $000s in RMA proceedings fighting neighbours or dopey Council "environmental advisers" for permission to deal with our own trees.
Only the environment loses when idiots who delight in bossing others around can disguise their nastiness as concern for trees.

I can’t find it, but on NZ conservative there was a comment once where someone said “oh, once you’ve grown a tree beyond a certain point you’ve gifted it to the public and renounced your rights over it”.
He just didn’t seem to understand the points you’ve made here.
