Green wall system
- green aspects of new developments (mostly, green features in the initial artist’s impression stage, all removed when built)
- front gardens and conversion to drives and mini car parks (use grass-crete, or grass paving, or just ban drives now, since a road parking space is removed by having a drive)
- build links and pathways between green areas to make wildlife corridors
- ban toxic pesticides on green principles
- ban plastic artificial grass (which is appearing everywhere, and was even in The Times gardening section)
- use more green walls, green roof technology (yes we know is expensive for return)
- practical steps rather than nice websites and magazine articles.
Promote green building to increase biodiversity and reduce carbon by absorption.
