Q.For The Last Year, My Neighbour Has Left An Old Fridge Freezer Beneath My Holly Tree On Our Boundary. The Tree Is Now Looking Very
sickly. Can the two be related? I’ve heard that freezers emit a gas… The tree has been there for at least 40 years and is normally very healthy. It is about 50 ft high.

I would be more concerned with the freezer sitting on top of tree roots and suffocating them.
