Dear John, will you help us reach 100,000 signatures? 

Dear John

Scientists say we need billions more trees in the UK to protect our climate and wildlife. And trees can help offer a natural defence against extreme weather like flooding

But here in the UK spending on trees fell by £20 million a year between 2015 and 2018. That’s no way to respond to the climate emergency.

Our petition calling on the UK government to double tree cover already has over 90,000 signatures. As it's National Tree Week, can you add yours today to help us reach 100,000? Let’s make sure the next government has committed to double the UK’s tree cover.

Only 13% of the UK is covered in woodlands – less than half the European average.

Our remaining woodland absorbs greenhouse gas emissions and provides homes for all kinds of wildlife. If the next government is serious about tackling the climate and ecological emergency, it needs to commit to doubling tree cover.

And right now we have a chance to change things. Under huge public pressure to act, political parties are making competing tree planting pledges in the run-up to the election.

Let’s take this opportunity to increase the pressure and secure a commitment.

Can you sign our petition to help double tree cover?

Together we can create a future brimming with trees.
