On Sunday the 2nd of August Millennium Kids were invited by the City of South Perth to offset their carbon emissions by planting trees in New Norcia.
Our team had planted over 500 trees in just two and a half hours in the open fields just past the entrance of New Norcia.
We planted these trees in New Norcia because it is the area around where the Swan River begins and also to help prevent salinity.
As a thankyou to the City of South Perth for donating the air fares for 3 Millennium Kids to go to the Bright Green Youth Conference in Denmark, two of the delegates, Alexander Craig and Luke McMillan, participated as a way to offset the carbon they will create from the flights.
To celebrate and to thank us for our efforts, the New Norcia Hotel kindly gave us a complimentary roast lunch and a tour showing us parts of the town normal tours don’t get to see.
Most of the buildings that are there were built in the 1930’s and even further back like the 1800’s.
