Around the main Christmas tree of the country sparked the dispute

Some believe that it is not necessary to cut a live tree, but others don’t agree with them

Between the capital of Ukraine there was a big discussion on the topic of what should be the main Christmas tree on St. Sophia square – live or artificial.

First on the website of the Kyiv city Council has a petition, where the capital’s residents are asked not to cut trees for the centennial celebration.

However, a week later there appeared yet another, radically opposed the petition in which the residents of the capital have addressed to the mayoralty with the request to install in the center of Kiev on new year’s holidays it is a living tree.

“All children and citizens would like to see in the center of Kiev is a real live tree, not a piece of plastic”, – stated in the petition.

Discussion between users of social networks on this issue are ongoing in the community “Typical Kyiv” in Facebook.

“Residents of the capital have registered a petition on the website of the Kyiv city Council demanding to set for the New year at the Sofia area of a living tree. This petition was a response to the request made by other residents of Kiev do not hack for the sake of the celebration of the centennial tree, and to establish instead a plastic tree. What do you think, does Kyiv need the main tree alive?” says “Typical Kiev”.

In the comments users share their thoughts on the matter.

“Need not. Better to spend money once on the artificial good quality and outfit for her to change or to vary annually,” writes Tatiana Shraiber.

Most of the people think that do not need to put “live” tree, but some still supported the idea.

Some netizens believe that nature will not be poorer, unlike illegal logging.
