I listen to Radio Hereford and Worcester in the mornings, and this morning they were getting terribly excited about a tree planting campaign.
We've been here before.
In 1973, I was Form Captain of my class at secondary school, and the most important thing I did as Form Captain was to Plant a Tree in '73. Every Form Captain went out to the ground around one of the gyms, and we all planted a sapling there. We thought that we were helping to save the planet.
Those trees are not there any more. The school is not there any more. So really the campaign didn't do a lot of good.
I hope this campaign does better, but I'm sceptical.
