individual contribution in an age of environmental catastrophe

The news is currently full of terrible news about species extinction and climate change and the absurdity of policy of many governments.

Governments must do much more but individuals also can do a lot more than read the news and get depressed. There are glorious stories on YouTube about people doing extraordinary things in faraway places, but much can be, must be done in the cities, not least to get rid of lawns and grow trees and food plants. To get people out of gyms and into fresh air. To improve air quality with trees too. Easiest and most reliable to use seeds from trees in your own street, trees that evidently thrive. With herbal understory running wild.

See what intelligent people can do in very difficult places.







We also create beauty in this kind of step by step project. Here is the most recent news from our gardens.  We did not start with deserts... except, except... that in reality the great dull lawns we started with are worse than deserts, major contributors to global warming.
