Hi everyone… my first time posting here. Although I have been a lurker here in past and already read many of your helpful posts I need even more help… if anyone is willing.

I have always found that the web community helps people (for nothing in return most the time). Basically my team and me are doing a project on plants and how they combat pollution.

The brief is to create a service that can help the environment… we therefore decided to focus on plants.

We have made a website and forums, however the forums are completely empty at the moment and have only 2 members (from the group). I was wondering if anyone could possibly help us by registering and making some nice posts about plants, how to plant, easy to grow plants, plants that generate their own seeds, some information on how they combat pollution or even some general information you feel would be nice for our project.

Our website is an information gateway that provides a service for combating pollution and plants. It has newsletters, starter pack, top 10 plants for combating pollution and top 10 easy to grow trees, Plantation tips and more.

We would appreciate your knowledge on the subject and I personally would be grateful to anyone who takes the effort to post replies or images on our forums.

I realize that it’s a lot to ask to someone who does not know anything about myself or my team however if you do post it will be likely to be shown in our team presentation =) - This is for a University project.

Whether you post on our forums or not I do thank you for reading our post.
Take Care.
Team Gluttony.

P.S. If you do reply on our forum I will let you know how project goes ?

Been to the site, and it's early days. The organisers really need to start posting themselves, to get people interested...

Looks to me very much like a project for a University course with possibly a limited life. Not sure what the qualifications and disciplines are of the individuals involved, but seems to be lacking scientific detail and any coherent structure if the stated aim is really what it is about. Didn't actually find the top 10 plants, etc. Maybe that was me.
