The Grand Welsh Tree Plant

///// ABOUT THE GRAND WELSH TREE PLANT /////
The Grand Welsh Tree Plant is part of A Grand Week in Wales.

///// What is the Grand Week in Wales? /////
An event for the week leading up to St David’s Day which engages, inspires and uplifts our communities. Nanny Biscuit are the leading organisers who will be holding multiple, socially distanced, safe activities throughout the week, from the 22nd February. The series of events engage a diverse audience throughout the communities of Wales.

///// What is the The Grand Welsh Tree Plant /////
The Grand Welsh Tree Plant objective is to plant a minimum of 1000+ trees in 2021 from the donations raised. The more money raised, the more we can plant, and the more carbon we can balance. So, if we raise enough donations to plant 10,000 trees, then this is what we plant. Our target is to raise at least £5000 which will enable us to plant 2500 trees. These trees will be planted after lockdown has come to an end, this will enable us to get more donors and members of the public involved.

///// Why plant trees? /////
To help balance the ever increasing Carbon Emissions from human activity.

///// How much C02 does an average UK citizen produce each year? /////
The average person in the UK produces between 8 and 15 tonnes of C02 a year.

///// How many trees are needed to be planted to offset the Carbon of an average UK citizen? /////

• With an average lifespan of 40 years per tree.
• Average of 20KG of Carbon absorbed each year per year.
• 8 to 15 tonnes = 8,000 to 15,000KG per year.
• So for one person 400 to 750 trees are needed to be planted every 40 years.
• The trees must have enough growing space to keep absorbing C02 for the 40 years.

///// How can you help offset your Carbon Emission? /////
