A beginners’ guide to planting trees – and fighting the climate crisis

  1. If anyone’s getting seriously interested, [here](https://www.tdag.org.uk/tree-species-selection-for-green-infrastructure.html) is one of the references we use at work: a massivo PDF from TDAG about the characteristics of trees you could plant. It’s more aimed at streetworks rather than gardens.

    Also check your council; Hampshire definitely has a huge planting project running and they will come and plop a nice tree down if you can identify a nice verge.

  2. How about we sort out energy prices and poverty? Leave the planting to middle class eco activists who have too much time on their hands.

  3. If you really want to plant trees, get a job doing it. The author of the articles heart is in the right place but makes the usual mistake of thinking that the only native woodland planting happening is from community groups or charities. Makes me laugh at times when a local community says their doing great planting 2000 trees in a week when a tree planter could do that themselves in a day.
