London is a Forest: an historical and environmental perspective
Saturday 26 October 11am-12pm
Londoners live in a city that has a roughly equal number of human inhabitants and arboreal inhabitants. There are thought to be over 9 million trees in London, and together their canopy covers more than 20% of the city, which means, technically, London is a forest.
In this illustrated talk, Paul Wood, the author of the book, London is a Forest, will look at the history of trees in the city, their changing use, and he will highlight some fascinating details connected to the trees and offer some thoughts about their future.
