Garden for a Living London - calling on city gardeners to choose one of seven pledges to create a wildlife and climate friendly garden, and help transform the capital’s three million gardens into a network of mini nature reserves. London Wildlife Trust’s campaign aims to highlight the incredible importance of the capital’s gardens to wildlife and to people. In urban areas especially, gardens will help reduce the impacts of climate change. They provide shade, absorb carbon, soak up flood water, retain water and help to cool the city. They also provide a vital habitat for wildlife, and a strong network of wildlife and climate friendly gardens stretching across the capital will provide room for species to move freely and adapt to our changing climate. Even If you're not a Londoner, check out the site as there's lots of useful guides to download to help your local wildlife and environment.
