Designed to raise awareness and to encourage helpful actions around deforestation, the Deforestation Tree is made of branches from fallen trees, covered in fabric leaves, paper messages, wooden pictures, and cardboard/recycled plastic models of deforestation-endangered animals.

The tree was produced together with Year 4 pupils at Widcombe Junior School, as part of a programme called Creative Impact. It is intended to help children design and run their own arts-rich projects that have a measurable environmental or social impact.
