Clyde Climate Forest 2026
Scotland’s first Climate Forest Launched in 2021 with support from all eight regional Council Leaders.
Towards 18 million trees Our mission is to plant trees and encourage others to plant trees, in line with our vision to create new woodlands across Glasgow City Region. We are a small team with big ambitions, and since 2021 there have been over 4 million trees planted in the region, meeting our aims of providing shade, mitigating flooding, extending woodland habitat, and sequestering carbon. This is a fantastic achievement by all our partners and has been done with heartfelt thanks to those supporting the CCF initiative.
