Report written by Paul B (he, him, me duck)
After being mistaken for a traffic warden whilst doing some citizen science, checking young trees for Street Trees for Living yesterday, today I was accused of working for Lewisham Council whilst doing the samw thing. Everything was fine after I explained what I was doing. A real mixture of findings - one hawthorn appeared to be dead, but another 100 metres away was flourishing. Generally most seemed to be surviving despite the drought.
STfL plant many of Lewishams young street and schools trees. They do an annual 'tree health check' as a citizen science initiative, to check on and record the health of every tree planted in the last 3 years.
