Street Trees / Besides being beautiful to look at, urban trees are said to:

Views of trees and nature can help with physical health and recovery
help control harmful particulates - contributing to cleaner air
Provide homes for wildlife and help to increase urban biodiversity
Provide shade, temperature regulation and help reduce the urban heat island effect
Can be used to slow traffic and reduce road rage
Help with urban drainage and flood reduction
Raise perception of value of a neighbourhood - potential house price increases

CHAIR

I moved into a maisonette on Inwood Crescent in 2009. I work full time as an architect, and have recently been looking for ways to make a positive difference to sustainability and biodiversity in my neighbourhood. I was particularly moved to take action when we lost three trees to Dutch Elm Disease.
