On Sunday, 10th October 2010, HUG members got together and ran a couple of low-carbon events under the banner of the Global Day of Action organised by 10:10 and 350.org: a garage sale (reduce, reuse, recyle) 

and a bit of guerrilla gardening. Naughtily, we picked a neglected plot which belongs to a local resident.

We created a beautiful border to show the plot is being cared for and not a rubbish tip.... hopefully time will bear out our far-sightedness. Lots of residents were interested in what we were doing - some came out and lent a hand, while others muttered things like "about time that was seen to"... "it looks fantastic now!", etc. All very worthwhile and yet another contribution by HUG to improving our local environment. I'm so proud!

The more HUG engages in these kinds of activities the more residents will trust us in delivering other projects like the LCZ.
