Nature — whether it’s about building a greater understanding and appreciation of our environment and biodiversity, the green spaces and magical memories made within our national or local parks, or the restoration and conservation of our trees which provide us the air (O2) we breathe while removing harmful carbon dioxide (CO2) and cyclically storing carbon within their roots — nature plays a significant symbiotic role in our everyday lives.
