Conservation

I firmly believe that we all have a sacred and solemn duty to care for, cherish, protect and enhance Wildlife, the Environment and all other Creatures in every way possible. All of us in our daily lives can do something to make this planet more beautiful, sustainable and maintain its rich diversity and fecundity. And it is a desperately urgent task: in the last 50 years our wildlife has dramatically diminished.

I was brought up in a rural environment. Our games and playtime was out in the fields, woods, streams, lanes of the valleys and hills of Gloucestershire. Growing up in such a setting one instinctively one feels part of something at once beauteous and wondrous.

A major part of the wok of the Trust is that of conservation in both it garden and in its teaching, projects and education. Its work follow a gentle philosophy of harmony, innovation, communication, mitigation, and example. And its work has also been enhanced by the its students and volunteers from  across Britain and the world who have joined with us.

Homo sapiens, the dominant species of this planet, is at a critical juncture in its story line: to change its ways and harness its skills and technology to save the planet and restore its environment and make it an even more wonderful place for itself and descendants and all other creatures OR to continue its desecration, pillage, exploitation and profligacy and possibly cause the demise of the entire species. The planet of course would continue without us , but countless other species would be condemned because of our stupidity.
