As well as yellow ribbons there are now quite a few figures, notices, messages and signs in Coventry along Clifford Bridge Road. They are part of a protest about the council's plans to fell trees to make way for a cycleway.
This sculpture can be found between the Brand Library and the Doctors House, around the northern part of Glendale. The quote below says, "The Forest Is the Mother of the Rivers." And, of course, California is facing a water shortage of unprecedented proportions right now. More about this area and the Doctors House later on.
80 people attended a Snap Community action in Gandolfo Gardens 16 June 2019 to save the trees. Upfield Corridor Coalition has developed a community vision for level crossing removal in Coburg and Brunswick.
Teddy Bears Picnic and Mad Hatters Tea Party in the Gandolfo Gardens next to Moreland Station. These mature trees are at risk of being chopped down for LXRP to use this space as a laydown area for construction of level crossing removal from Bell street to Moreland Road. Residents are campaigning to save these trees in Gandolfo Gardens and to minimise tree losses during construction.
The Upfield Corridor Coalition have commissioned an urban vegetation assessment to assist in saving the vegetation along the Upfield Corridor.
In 1911 residents lead a campaign to establish the Moreland Reserve, we need to continue their fight to maintain our existing urban trees and parkland.
Keep your eyes peeled for more exciting projects coming up very soon! In the mean time I'll leave you with this lonely looking tree that I found on a rainy Wednesday stroll...poor guy.

Before heading out to the City Council meeting last evening, I created these T-shirts using some of my Dad's cotton undershirts [thanks Dad!!!] and colouring them with felt tip pens.

... and protect them against the human stupidity!
A characteristic view of Lucca: the Guinigi Tower (1390 AD).
On top of the tower (which is 44.25 meters high) has been created a little garden of Holm oaks.

“Canaima Transportation”

This is the journey that started it all. I traveled to Venezuela to stay with my pregnant sister and her husband for five weeks back in 2012. The country was on the brink of a civil war, but the violence hadn’t broke yet.
Orazio and I went on a weekend trip to Canaima to see Angel Falls, the worlds tallest free falling waterfall.
To get to the waterfall, we had to ride in this boat. The guy sitting in the front steered the boat, and there was a gentleman sitting behind us in charge of the motor. It was so cool to journey through the Amazon Forest by boat.
Before this exploration, I hadn’t been much of an outdoor person. I would only take photos of scenes in town, places that were convenient. I realized that I wanted to see more, to go on endless adventures, and this was all comprehended after realizing that I just hiked, boated, ate, and slept in the Amazon Forest. The freakin’ Amazon Forest!! And you know what? I’ll go back in a heartbeat.

If you don;t know what you're looking at this might seem like a wooded area with big trees.But these trees are elders that still stand on their original soil.
They are very large for this area. I measured a cherry tree at nearly 4 ft diameter at breast height (DBH). While I don't think these trees are primeval old-growth trees they are certainly big and tall. They reside on a sharp ridge where it would have been impossible to farm and not that convenient to access. and so they have been left to grow on their own gaining the great heights and monstrous girths of the original trees of the North American continent. While there are some fat trees around, the real tell here is the height. The trees don't even branch out until they are nearly 100 feet tall. The biggest ones up here are Oaks and Cherries. A few big hemlocks can be seen but the biggest trees are deciduous ones.
Trees that grow without the competition of the the forest tend to grow out into big wide, but low canopies. Wild trees grow straight up before the branch as this part of the tree only serves as a tower to raise the leafy part up high enough to maximize the food and energy it gets from photosynthesis. A leaf is just a photocell that converts CO2 into sugar, using solar power.
Anyway I want to stop and commune with these trees because their sense of time is so much wider than ours. I estimate the biggest are 200 years old. Humans are but a blip, albeit a destructive one, on their lives. They are magnificent creatures that deserve far more reverence. And despite the advent of recycled paper and plantation wood, the number of trees overall is declining. Every housing development and shopping mall takes out more trees. We are as wasteful as our forebearers and our lives are to short to see the long term necessity of trees...and not grass and asphalts.
I believe every inch of median strip and every yard (and yes you's get leaves in your gutter - DEAL WITH IT) should be reforested.
Sincere thanks to all of you who for your support in this cause! Merci à vous tous pour votre soutien dans cette cause!
This tree, and about 25% of all the trees planted on the street my parent lives on as well as many others in Candiac, is the reason I have not been around this weekend.
This beautiful 39-year-old maple sits between my parent's and our neighbours properties. It is one of up to 21 or more mature trees the city of Candiac has decided to cut down on our street because they, the city, planted them right on top of the junctions to the water main and to the sewage when they originally planted the trees. This will happen to the trees on all te other streets that will have this work done unless urgent action is taken NOW!
Naturally, there are several potential solutions for avoiding this, but the city did not inform the concerned residents that they were planning to cut down the trees, and so obviously had no intention of discussing potential alternatives with the residents.
Luckily, we did find out about this [when they started painting lines around the trees and on the road and my mother got suspicious and started asking questions!].
Thanks to three of our neighbours and my family, we were able to mobilise a large group of concerned residents and 2 city councillors within less than 24 hours to attend a meeting Saturday afternoon. The turnout and concern of these residents was phenomenal! The decision to save our majestic trees and preserve the beauty of our environment was unanimous!
I will keep you posted.

This photo was taken on Saturday morning, 17th April 2010, by one of the neighbors. The two people on the right are my parents, with our neighbors standing on the left.

Want to support rainforest in a creative way AND have your car smell good?
Here's a creative way to save the trees and support the Amazon Rainforest. In this tree guerrilla marketing campaign cut-down tree car fresheners were distributed to encourage recycling and spread awareness about the shrinking rainforests due to cutting down trees.
