My Life in Three Trees
With a theme of ‘My Life In Three Trees’, Sharon Durdant-Hollamby FICFor interviews Tony Kirkham MBE, then Head of Arboretum, Gardens and Horticultural Services at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.
Tony and his team at Kew managed over 14,000 trees, amongst many other responsibilities. In recognition of his invaluable contribution to horticulture in a career spanning over 40 years, Tony was awarded an MBE in the Queen’s New Year’s Honours List 2020.
This #MembersHour took place on 30 April 2020.
Carbon Mitigation Outcomes of Different Afforestation Strategies
Net zero targets and the climate change crisis have stimulated tree planting targets, but which trees should be planted to maximise climate change mitigation, how should we manage them and what should we do with the harvested wood? Join Eilidh Forster to discover how she found that new commercial forest can be more effective for climate change mitigation than new forest managed for conservation.

Bark beetles, especially Dendroctonus and Ips, can cause serious damage to conifer forests. Join Hugh Evans and Dr Max Blake to find out the key factors determining, or limiting, attacks by Ips species, including pathways for movement, presence of suitable host trees and climate requirements. They will also discuss the action taken to eradicate the beetles within Britain.
