In this episode, we are joined by excellent Ted Green our only returning guest of the series who has just authored a new book, Treetime. The book explores Teds lifelong adventure with trees and tree folk. Since earliest childhood, and with Windsor Great Park as his playground, Ted has been asking questions about nature and our environment. Treetime is a collection of tales from over 80 years spent observing, questioning and caring for the natural world and all its wildlife, especially fungi, trees and birds. Ted is one of the most influential tree experts I have ever met, and his influence extends far beyond I think even he realises sometimes. This book is so important for anyone interested in the environmental world, especially those with an interest in trees, landscapes, ecology, carbon, soils, fungi, farming, conservation and so many other areas too. One very interesting thing with this book is its written the same way that Ted talks, which means you are constantly taken on stories and journeys throughout the book, but also his thoughts in interesting studies and research ideas, or theories on various matters. Giving the book a really rich value in helping guide future Phd studies and inform us of areas we need to know much more about. I cannot recommend the book enough and its really a vital learning tool for anyone interested in the environment. All proceeds also go to support the Arboricultural Association and you can find the book on their website here: https://www.trees.org.uk/Book-Shop/Products/Treetime-Ted-Green Guest: Ted Green https://www.alismty.com/ Be sure to check out the podcast on all usual podcast platforms, and on social media.
