Can we really solve the climate crisis by planting trees (part one)

In an era of divisions over the climate breakdown, tree planting seems to bring everyone together. But are there situations where tree planting can cause more harm than good? And how much can it help us counteract global heating? Patrick Greenfield leads you through the science and controversy behind the decisions we’re making and how those decisions could shape our future environment.

Addresses what happens when good science is taken out of context, something that happens way too often.

Can we really solve the climate crisis by planting trees? (part two)

Getting trees into the ground isn’t simple. Reforestation often involves trade-offs and challenges. Phoebe Weston checks in on two projects where people are planting trees, and one where it’s not humans doing the planting at all.

I particularity enjoyed hearing about jays planting oaks and how important it is to preserve old growth and ‘natural’ woodlands.
