Grow your own, pollution eating trees, and workouts to help power our city

Allotment areas where people can apply for space to grow their own food, more outdoor gyms & spaces for parkour, dancing, yoga etc, pollution eating trees to be grown alongside motorways and busy roads, bicycle shacks so people living in flats have secure places to store their bikes, car free days and weekends across the city, a centrally-run volunteering network connecting individuals with charities, local councils and good causes so we can all work together on projects to make our city better for everyone, research into different things we can all do to help power our city. For example, in the Olympic Park there is an exercise machine which generates power. If we could put these in public areas around the city everyone could take their turn in keeping the lights on.

Every block of 6 or more flats, whoever the landlord is, should have Both a covered shed for residents to store their bikes when not in use and bike racks for the use of their visitors.

Agree that more space to grow food is a great idea. I would also suggest that boring green spaces can be made more pleasant by the addition of community orchards.
