The new exhibit features dozens of newly planted trees, along with 6,500 plants selected for their resilience to projected climate conditions.
In the race to reduce carbon, researchers overseas have unveiled a carbon garden. It showcases the role nature plays in protecting the planet. At Kew Gardens in London, the new exhibit features dozens of newly planted trees, along with 6500 plants, all selected for the resilience to. future climate conditions. If we’re planting something now that’s going to be struggling in 2030 years’ time, that’s not a very sustainable choice. So Kew has done a lot of research into the kind of trees, the species particularly that we should be planting, so they’re really locking up carbon for the long term. Designers say it is a real life reminder of those carbon cycle lessons many of us have not thought about since school.
