Too much killing of nature, 21st July

55.569344 -2.648525

The large green on either side of the road running through St Boswells is manicured to death and is a desert to nature. i would like to see huge areas left for the grasses and wildflowers to grow- we have lost 98% of our wildflower meadows - green spaces like these can help address the issues of a decline in nature..it will also mean less tax payers money is being used, i don't like my taxes being used to fund destruction, and more labour saved that could be used more usefully to plant trees or wildflowers. we need to change our way we manage nature. thank you
