Double UK tree cover And help combat climate chaos

We're facing a climate emergency.

Our planet is warming, our seas are rising, but politicians just aren't acting fast enough.

Join us in petitioning the UK government to double tree cover by 2045.

Our CEO Craig explains how this campaign can help combat the climate emergency – and improve our health and wellbeing along the way.

Local people were horrified and bereaved.

But now a community is fighting back to protect the remaining trees and create a new natural park for the town.
