The hundred trees project
Donation protected
I'm working towards planting 1000 trees in containers at industrial units around Bristol.
The trees will be planted in 70-litre containers with integrated water storage. The containers will have a circular plastic mulch in the centre to stop weed growth and will be planted with nitrogen-fixing plants around this. They will provide a wildlife haven in an otherwise industrial landscape.
The site owners will be entitled to the Renewable Obligation Certificates, or a nominal land rental charge if they prefer. they will also benefit from the visual amenity of the trees.
This is just the start of the The 1000 trees project where the trees will utimately be harvested using a regenerative coppice technique, and the carbon sequestered.
The end goal is essentially reverse coal mining, taking carbon from the atmosphere and storing it in the ground.
