We all have a duty to 'speak for the trees'. They really cannot speak for themselves.

If that makes me The Lorax, so be it.

If you are made aware of a large tree in your area being slated for slaughter I encourage you to explore all options in a bid to save it, particularly if the tree looks to you to be in good health, or is known to be home for local birds and other fauna.

Oftentimes one problematic branch need be removed. That is /not/ a reason to remove an entire tree!
