plant trees, save the planet and do NOT wait for SOMEONE else :-)

lets plant trees and save the world (not just the climate 😄)

the hot and dry weather seams to be worse and worse every year => lets try to plant more trees and renaturate forests wherever we can. i tried it again this weekend and planted 4 trees in the weakest part of the nearby forest in lochham. as there should be at least some rain in the next few days are the chances to survive for my trees quite good, if you asked me.

my dears, i was so happy to see that at least one of the golden acacia trees i've planted few years ago survived and has grown to a quite big and thick tree left from the chapel below. what a nice feeling 💃

this 4 fellows (maple, spruce, cherry tree & rowan) from our flowerpots & garden place above our subterranean garage (where they couldn't grow much longer) are looking forward to see their new habitat 💚

all my trees will grow close to this chapel in lochham

 let's get ready and ...

... and good luck, mr. spruce & colleagues

 

 they were 170 years here for us. still healthy + producing oxygen we breath. now dead. so sad 😨

 

my dears, thank goodness i'm not alone in my efforts. new zealand wants to plant 1 billion trees to fight the climate change (source HERE), sadhguru motivated 160 million people to plant trees (besides river banks) in his #rallyforrivers action in india (#saveourrivers, i mentioned that action already ... and supported it a little bit financially) and there are many, many people around the globe devoted to saving our planet's resources, you know?

on the way back i've collected some garbage into a plastic bag, so our forest is a little bit cleaner than it was yesterday ...
why am i doing stuff like that? it was a very simple consideration few years ago. i felt that we people cannot continue to destroy our nature and that someone should save it. but WHO is SOMEONE? this simple question helped me to recognize that me, you and all of us should help to improve our natural environment and we should not wait for someone else :-). easy, isn't it?

irgendjemand sollte die natur / die welt retten. WER ist IRGENDJEMAND? ich, du, jeder von uns ... so einfach ist das thema 😇

let's plant trees :-)

addendum april 17th, 2017:

next 2 seedlings moved from flowerpot into the forest

~~~

let's plant few trees in the nearby forest :-)

one oak tree from my office job - a give away at a product presentation last week ... and 5 golden acacia trees which grow in our garden above the underground garage, a place where they never ever can stay (they will become 30 metres tall), you know?

before:

 oak tree

 many, many golden acacias in our garden

after:

 

 chakka, golden acacia planted in a nearby forest ...

let's hope, all 6 saplings will growto strong trees 😄

they were 170 years here for us. still healthy + producing oxygen we breath. now dead. so sad 😨

let's do good (my last year's tree planting action + grow food, not lawn :-) + let's save the world, will we?

.

think global, act local

you don't know how? it is easy, my dears. there are ten thousands small and big issues out there which improve the world. just try few of them :-)

trial #1: i have planted 4 golden acacia trees which i have grown up from seeds in the nearby forest and i still have two more for later this year or for next year. two live already in 'freedom' since last autumn, but one struggling a lot as they cut all bushes at the nearby supermarket, so i'm not sure it will survive ... the other one is fine and growing :)

before

good-bye flower pot + hello forest, the new home for my sweet little babes

after

shall the local ghosts take care of my small trees? will they?

they were 170 years here for us. still healthy + producing oxygen we breath. now dead. so sad 😨

trial #2: let's support local businesses ~ ok, just visited friend's hot stone massage around the corner

this beauty is not me, of course. source of the picture: here

trial #3: what about my next trial for the idea 'grow food, not lawn'? of course organic and for sure no GMO / monsanto 'supported' stuff :-)

chili, eatable, i've already tried it => so hot :-)

trial #4: help others

our hedgehog winter hotel, catering starts in december :)

trial #5: an interesting social project in germany, where people can interact together in open spaces using a multifunctional cube shape it to different things like bridge, bench, children playing ground etc. WIRFEL (like würfel aka cube in german)

trial #6, .... #10,000: coming soon or never :o)

btw, the google album with the pictures is here 

ok, there is also some good on bigger scale as well: enjoy this examples
