Plant 1,400 native trees around the Unity wetland in Bangkok
A neighborhood-led restoration of the Unity wetland needs $500 for saplings and equipment.
🇹🇭 Bangkok, Bangkok, Thailand1,471 views
The Unity wetland has been used as an informal dump for years. This July, 70 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 99 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the district council, including native species selected by a local botanist.
The area floods more each year, and fish have returned for the first time in a decade after our first cleanup. Restoring it will protect homes and bring back shade.
All the labor is volunteered. We just need materials.
We'll post planting day photos and a count of every sapling planted.
Where the $500 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $300
• Tools and protective gear: $90
• Waste removal and skip hire: $110
I hope life is good to you.

More neighborhoods should do this. Love from Faisalabad.
hang in there. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Hope things get better soon, Nattapong. This could happen to any of us. God bless.
