Forestry Investment Blog

Staying with the environmental side of forestry news, as part of “National Tree Week”  in Great Britain,  its main television broadcaster the BBC has initiated an investment ina  forestry project to plant a million trees across the country, in a scheme entitled  ‘Tree O’Clock’.  The World Record attempt took place on Saturday 5th December 2009.

According to the BBC,  the aims of “Tree O’Clock” are:

-  Create a ‘big moment in time’ dedicated to the celebration of trees
- Bring trees to the attention of a much wider audience across the UK
- Create new forestry and woodland, including.tree planting for hedges and community orchards, which can improve the landscape, enhance wildlife, soak up particular air pollution in cities, reduce the build-up of heat in cities.
- Provide an educational insight into the value of trees and forestry.

Certainly a cause worth supporting.
