Hello readers

Welcome to the Climate-Friendly Gardener’s first post.

And welcome to the climatefriendlygardener.co.uk website. I hope you’ll find this site informative and thought-provoking. If you just find it provoking, do get in touch and let me know why! What questions would you like this website to answer? What suggestions do you have for how gardeners can help look after the climate?

Why am I sharing a diagram about farming on a website for gardeners? Well the principles of climate-friendly land use are pretty similar, and the Farming Futures website is a great source of good reliable information. But for the low-down on greenhouse gases from gardens, why not start your exploration of climatefriendlygardener.co.uk with How Gardeners May Affect Climate?
