we should be updating the old rhyme Plant a tree in '73; plant one more in '74 to "plant a tree in '23; plant one more in '24 "
National Tree Week starts Saturday the 27th which marks the annual winter tree planting season and welsh government is offering every household  a free tree to collect from over 50 locations in Wales. So what's the point of why everyone should plant a tree in the year 2023, we could reduce the severity of global climate change by removing excess carbon from our atmosphere
