Power of Carbon Cousins

Pŵer Cyfnitherod Carbon

Something happened to me in the Rainforests of Wales. Spending that length of time with trees, it reminded me that in fact, they are our carbon cousins. I have made environmentally conscious decisions throughout my CÂN Y COED Rainforest Commission, but it didn't feel enough - so I decided to open a Treesisters Account as a Self-Employed Freelancer & commit to planting a thousand trees with them, this year - I wasn't sure how I would afford to do it, but then a beautiful poet came to me to ask for private mentoring - & I asked her if she could pay me in trees instead of money. With this exchange, so far, I have planted 293 trees, which is a jolly good start, I'd say

​Digwyddodd rhywbeth i mi yng Nghoedwigoedd glaw Cymru. Wrth dreulio cymaint o amser gyda choed, cefais fy atgoffa eu bod nhw, mewn gwirionedd, yn gyfnitherod carbon i ni. Rydw i wedi gwneud penderfyniadau amgylchedd ymwybodol drwy gydol fy Nghomisiwn Coedwigoedd Glaw CÂN Y COED, ond ni theimlais fod hyn yn ddigon - felly penderfynais agor Cyfrif Coedchwiorydd fel Gweithiwr Llawrydd Hunangyflogedig ac ymrwymo i blannu mil o goed gyda nhw, eleni. Doedden i ddim yn siŵr sut gallwn fforddio gwneud hyn, ond yna daeth bardd hardd ataf a gofyn am fentora preifat - a gofynnais iddi fy nhalu mewn coed yn lle arian. Drwy'r cyfnewid hwn, rydw i wedi plannu 293 o goed hyd yma - mae hwn yn gychwyn gwych yn fy marn i.
