‘1000 Trees’ Campaign across City Region
The Clyde Climate Forest was launched in June 2021. Since then, the project has seen over 1.2 million trees planted in areas across the Region. Of these, around 50,000 trees have been planted in urban areas by local schoolchildren and community groups. Many landowners have been approached to plant woodlands in key locations for wildlife with several projects in development, and many tree planting assessments have been completed on council owned land.
All eigh councils have committed to supporting deliver of the Clyde Climate Forest signing a Concordat agreement to embed CCF targets into their own plans and policies, helping toward their own Net Zero ambitions.

We have identified 16 'Target Neighbourhoods' across urban parts of Glasgow City Region which have low levels of existing tree canopy cover and are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
In each of these areas we will run a '1000 Trees' Campaign aiming to plant at least 1000 trees in each of these areas.
