Hamish
Plant more trees.
Allow tree climbing at school.
Protect currently existing trees from removal.
Don't clear land of trees for new residential estates.
If trees have to be removed, attempt to re-plant them somewhere else rather than mulch them.
Identified actions
(you might be able to do these, or you might be able to think of something else within your power to do)
Plant more trees! You could do this at home, or you could organise a public event.
Here is just one of the national events which are already committed to planting trees! https://treeday.planetark.org/
Ask your local school about tree climbing and if it's allowed at school.
If it isn't allowed, advocate for why it should be allowed. You might like to use these resources to create your own educational presentation.
