“Trees for Cities” latest campaign is called “Trees for Streets”. Part of the Palo Alto Fund is supporting this exciting project. Trees for Streets aims to raise £1,000,000 to plant trees on London’s streets. The appeal is being supported by Mayor Boris Johnson, as it complements his initiative to plant another 10,000 street trees in the capital. As well as beautifying the city, street trees reduce asthma, absorb co2, increase property prices, cool the city and prevent water run-off.

An eye-catching poster campaign on the London Underground encourages Londoners to pledge their support for the campaign by text, phone and email.
