Here's an interesting one.
Why are there no trees along this pavement? 🌳🌳
Because the entire pavement is lined with underground Victorian coal cellars with the coal shute in the pavement.
Luckily there's a park over the road!!

Everyone reading, we need your support.
The Happy Man Tree, a 150-year-old tree located in Hackney is about to be felled by developers. Locals are protesting this decision and demand to be consulted.
Mature trees do a better job at cleaning the air.
Please support us. 🌳🙏❤️

Just had a fabulous end to an #UrbanTreeFestival, listening to the wonderful poetry & prose written about #trees by talented writers. #Urbantrees inspire so many, and so much - let's make sure more of them are protected & planted. #saveourstreettrees#newleaf
The #UrbanTreeFestival 2020 online wouldn’t have happened without the generosity of the Twelve Healers Trust, an anonymous donor, @tonkinliu and public donations - we are humbled by people’s generosity and look forward to being back in May 2021 🌳

Here's a pretty good plane tree soon to be felled for redevelopment in the Pearson Street Mall, Charlestown, NSW. Protestors put signs in it reminding people of the benefits trees provide. We now know how to value trees, isn't it time councils started to use that knowledge?
