Trees planted in a line with clear cuts in the distance..

Also: monoculture of conifers which can "poison" the surrounding area due to the overload of needles falling to the ground and acidifying it. Especially problematic in vicinity to rivers, brooks or other water bodies as this can lead to "toxic flushes".
