… or draw, photograph, sing, rap! However you want to express yourself, students from My World My Home environmental leadership programme are inviting you to create some tree art to show how much people want #MoreTreesInUK.
Why trees?
Trees are one of our biggest nature allies in the fight against climate change. They clean the air and water, improve soil health and provide home to thousands of species.
Despite their importance, just 13% of the UK’s total land has tree cover. However, in Spain it’s 36% – so many more trees than the UK!!!
Find out more about Friends of the Earth’s tree campaign.
Who can enter?
Anyone currently in the UK aged 7-30. If you’re under the minimum age for Twitter or Instagram, please ask an older sibling, parent or guardian to submit it on your behalf. We’ll make sure it’s you that gets the prize though!
How do I enter?
- Create some artwork celebrating trees;
- Tweet or post it on Twitter or Instagram using #MoreTreesInUK (and tagging @FOE_Community on Twitter).
Deadline for submissions: 1pm Tuesday 12th May 2020.
What can I win?
A T-shirt of your choice from the Friends of the Earth store.
A panel of MY World My Home students will be making a decision and we will message you about how to get your T-shirt to you safely.
Fatima from New City College, Hackney has made a poster to start off the inspiration: #MoreTreesInUK:
