Roots of Blood Campaign

A campaign against the Woodland Trust's wildlife and conservation policies and its use of euphemistic language to mask its darker activities. It employs hunting agencies to shoot deer in its woodlands and describes this as "management", "intervention", "control" and "thinning out". The Woodland Trust also uses glyphosate weedkiller that, according to the World Health Organisation, "reduces the populations of beneficial insects, birds and small mammals by destroying vegetation on which they depend for their food and shelter".
