The Tree of possibility
Our tree is a message about the choice we have to make in the face of Climate Change. We can continue to live Carbon dependent lifestyles, worsening the problem day by day... or we can take action, like joining the 10:10 campaign. 10:10 is calling on individuals, community groups, businesses and governments to sign up reducing their CO2 emmissions by 10% in 2010. www.1010uk.org
The display features a moving poem Lost Generation by Jonathan Reed.
