Why - if you wish to embrace environmental issues - do you think

For the most part yes. Although I am sure there are exceptions.
However, I don't know many trees that object to train noises in the

Moreover, I am sure there are many more asthmatics and allergy
sufferers in metropolitan areas than rural.
