"Hull’s green transformation continues to gain momentum as the Humber Forest project recorded the planting of 368,000 trees during the 2024–25 season — a 35% rise over last year. Spanning Hull, East Yorkshire, and North Lincolnshire, this environmental initiative is part of the broader Northern Forest programme. With new woodlands, hedgerows, and urban greening efforts underway, the region is actively fighting climate change, improving biodiversity, and restoring natural resilience in flood-prone zones.
The Humber Forest project is rewriting the future of regional reforestation across Hull and its surrounding districts. Spearheaded by collaboration between local authorities, farmers, and environmental partners, this year’s planting of 368,000 trees marks a substantial leap from last year’s figures. Hedgerow additions stretched over 56 kilometres, while woodlands sprouted in Holderness, Crowle, and Hull’s Oak Road Playing Fields — transforming both agricultural landscapes and urban parks into eco-buffer zones. On flood-prone sites like Oak Road, trees are being used strategically to absorb rainwater, stabilise soil, and restore natural ecosystems. Experts involved in the planning note that the new green belts will also provide vital corridors for pollinators and native species. The community forest’s impact extends far beyond the environment: it supports jobs, enhances community wellbeing, and builds a model of nature-based resilience. Grant support covering up to 100% of costs has ensured that the planting push remains inclusive and accessible."

Once cleared for a palm oil monoculture, this forest is now lush and diverse again.
Together with Leuser Conservation Forum, we’re restoring the Leuser ecosystem in Indonesia — supporting natural regeneration and planting native trees with local communities.

Atmospheric chemistry enhances the #climate mitigation potential of tree restoration
Study based on increase in #tree area of about 12M sq km, which is 135% of the area of the #US, and similar to estimates of the global tree restoration potential of 1 trillion trees. It is believed the planet has lost nearly half of its trees (about 3 trillion) since onset of industrialized society.

Treekeepers The Race for a Forested Future by Lauren E. Oakes, 2024
“A frank, probing, but ultimately hopeful book” (Elizabeth Kolbert) that shows how the path from climate change to a habitable future winds through the world’s forests.
Countries on the edge of the Sahara desert are reversing desertification by just digging half circles.
The ground in these places is too compact for water to soak in during wet season which leads to flooding but digging these holes gives the water a place to stop and soak in. And they’re pushing back the desert with this. By just digging holes.

“People need more tools in the tool kit to actually mitigate climate change impact,” Dale said.
“It’s us saying, ‘This is going to be a tool.’ It’s been in front of us this whole time.”
