London Heat Map

Cooling London. The magic of SUGi Pocket Forests!

Check out this Urban Heat profile taken at 3 of our Central London Forests, on 25 June 2024 at midday. In certain places we measured up to 25 degrees celsius differences!

With temperatures around the world rising to new levels (especially in cities), trees and urban forests offer a natural solution to the challenges we face in our cities.

Having SUGi Pocket Forests integrated into our cities supports the health and wellbeing of communities. These forests do more than simply increase a location’s aesthetic; they protect us from the impact of the climate crisis by preventing flooding and mitigating the ‘Urban Heat Island effect’, and must be understood as a powerful tool.
