This made me smile so much this morning, I chucked a u-ey to take a photo. It was wonderful to see these cars parked in the shade.
I planted these Chinese Elms when my children attended St Peter’s Primary School. I parked my car in this treeless car park every morning, when I dropped them off.
They helped me plant them.
I couldn’t believe that a 30 plus year old car park wouldn’t have shade trees planted around it, in a hot place like Campbelltown.
One day I planted these Chinese Elms. It’s a variety called Ulmus parvifolia “Todd”. It doesn’t weep like regular Chinese Elms.
Later I went back and planted some native trees on the other side of the car park. These Waterhousia floribunda have grown beautifully too.
I often get complaints from people saying “you should be planting native trees.” But birds and animals don’t mind which trees you plant. They just want more trees.
The world needs more shade.
I’ve found out recently that I’m not suppose to plant trees. I was surprised to learn that you can’t even plant trees on your own nature strip.
There’s no way Councils can plant all the trees we need to keep the world cooler. They are going to need our help. They can’t pick up all the papers either.
We all need to help.

"Are we raising the most polluted generation in the history of the planet?"
This is the question explored in the movie "Toxic Baby" and after watching the movie when it was released a few years ago, my answer was sadly, an emphatic 'YES we are!'
The good news is that with awareness, together we can change the answer to a victorious 'not anymore'.
I'm not sure how the movie can be viewed now however, the attached TED talk by the film maker and scientist is the inspiration that led to the making of the movie. They share valuable thought provoking information that may spark your curiosity (and possibly anger) and inform your future choices.
Informed choices are always a good thing🌟

The toxic baby Filmmaker Penelope Jagessar Chaffer was curious about the chemicals she was exposed to while pregnant: Could they affect her unborn child? So she asked scientist Tyrone Hayes to brief her on one he studied closely: atrazine, a herbicide used on corn. (Hayes, an expert on amphibians, is a critic of a...
