_ANY_ gardening activity is destructive to what would have been
there
without human interference.


Indeed. Every weed is simply a natural plant which the 'arrogant'
gardener decides is spoiling the look of his/her grand plan.

Except that Ivy can be dangerous, there is a pine tree in my
niegbours
garden which is covered in Ivy, the Ivy is so heavy it is pulling
the
tree over, and if something isn't done about it, it will fall into
my
garden!


Yes, 'close encounters' do tend to heighten awareness. :-))
