Guerilla Gardening & Pavement Pimping
Effectively guerilla gardening and pavement pimping is the war against bare barren and uncared for ground in cities and other areas that are often over looked. Guerilla gardeners generally target areas using fast and easy growing plants that require little or no external help, strawberries for instance. Amazingly, these eco warriors are technically breaking the law, it is after all vandalism of a public place.. except its with plants.. and it makes stuff better not worse.. but still! Fortunately they are rarely persecuted and are at worse occasionally questioned of their actions.
so some examples of what can be done? well the best plants to use, according to the experts, are fast growing and easy to establish plants.. such as strawberry’s or wild flowers.
even rubbish can be used for makeshift planters to brighten up dull boring areas, they can also be made at home foreasy application to street lamps or other poles.
it can be highly organised affair.. the kind of thing that we all should get into in our own areas. often there are groups of people that will get together and perform these acts.. often it is in bigger cities but smaller ones are bound to exist.. and if they dont, go start one!
other times people might opt for seed bombs, surprisingly, a bomb full of seeds.. made of soil, seeds and fertiliser in a ball they can be throw over high walls or fences onto derelict land. anyone can make these, but if you cant be arsed.. you can also buy them..
this also could be used in a wider range though, because each pod contains soil and butrients, if enough were dropped effectively a bed of soil could be formed in which the plants could grow, creating plant life where before it was barren.. this could be useful for regenerating large areas of the planet.. it is shocking to think that the government is willing to spend billions and billions on bombs that kill, and nothing on bombs that create much needed life.
