Tree protest

Bristol City Council has started on a new metro system that will cut through green space out towards Frenchay, getting the local eco-warriors up in arms. Rigging up a network of tarps and ropes people have been sleeping in the canopy for several nights.

The structures were really quite impressive, cocoon like. It's a feat of endurance that they are sleeping up there on these cold, blowy winter days. Speaking to a chap from the Feed Bristol group that grow produce in the surrounding allotments it appears to me that it would be a shame to lose the land. The arrangement seems very professional, utilising big poly tunnels that grow produce for many different causes.
