Podcasts about planting trees

It's a good year for British apples, a lack of frost and an abundance of warm weather should mean a bumper crop. Harvest is underway and hopes are high, but there are continuing concerns about the loss of orchards and growers' reluctance to invest in new ones.It's party conference season and we're hearing from all the parties about their plans for the countryside. Today we speak to Tim Farron from the Liberal Democrats who would scrap inheritance tax on farms.An experimental scheme using drones to disperse native tree seeds across areas of rocky moorland in the Scottish Highlands has produced encouraging results. Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

The increasing number of farms being planted in trees for carbon farming is raising concerns about the spread of pests and an increased fire risk. Tairāwhiti Hawke's Bay reporter Alexa Cook has the story.

Planting lots of trees is one of many strategies being pursued to combat climate change. Forests absorb carbon dioxide, provide shade, and help regulate temperatures. They also support biodiversity and improve air and water quality. According to a new study by researchers from the University of California – Riverside, restoring forests to their pre-industrial extent […]

Winter dormancy is the best time to shift a tree or a shrub (or plant a new one), especially when they originate from a “temperate climate” (the kind that shed their leaves and hail from UK, Europe, North America, etc). When considering shifting a sub-tropical/semi tropical one, wait a little to just before spring sets in (mid-end September). These sub-tropicals do not really like to be dumped into a wet and cold soil for many weeks of deepest winter – it could kill them! Besides, as discussed last week, with these cold and wet soils all kinds of Root Rots (Phytophthora, Armillaria, Pithium, etc) might terminally affect your trees. Here are some ideas to make it work as well as possible: 1) Consider the size of the tree – smaller ones are much easier to (trans)plant than big ones. 2) Get a “trenching spade”. These long, narrow, sturdy blades are much more efficient at digging into cold, wet clay soils than the ordinary, wider spades. 3) Destination site – select the site where the tree has to go and dig a rather huge hole – you can't really dig big enough, as no matter what the root ball will be, a lot of extra drainage is always going to be beneficial. Drainage away from the root ball to be planted helps to avoid Root Rots. Mix in some pumice or compost in the loose soil material, so that it will become friable and nutritious with organic material; the tree will appreciate this new site as it has plenty of drainage and food. 4) Original site: with the trenching spade dig a circular shape around the tree's root-zone – remember that the wider you go, the heavier the root ball will be, you might need a bit of neighbourly help to lift the bugger out! Approx. 30 to 40 cm radius from the tree's stem is pretty good Try to get as many roots across as possible as the tree will re-establish better. 5) Levering with the trenching spade, remove the tree and its root ball out of its original site and transport it on a wheelbarrow to the destination site. If the soil starts to fall off the roots, use a hessian sack to wrap it all up before moving. 6) Plant the tree at destination site as soon as possible to prevent drying out. The level of the tree's soil should be the same at the new site – don't plant it deeper than it was before! In the unlikely event of destination site being too dry, fill the planting hole with water before the shift. 7) Stake the new tree to anchor it. Provide it with a bit of wind-shelter (windbreak) for the first year or so, firm the soil around the roots. Top-dress in spring with some slow-release fertilizer. If you've lost a lot of roots in the shift, prune the tops of the tree to restore the root/foliage balance. 8) I prefer to add some 3-4 inches of mulch over the root zone to keep moisture in and keep roots cool in summer. Keep the mulch away from the stem of the tree to avoid collar rots. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A conversation with Austin Unruh, founder of Trees for Graziers, about the investment case for silvopasture. What if we could plant hundreds of millions of trees on degraded, low-value pasture land and make money from it? What if we planted trees that are beneficial for livestock—ruminants, pigs, and poultry? The market for meat and animal products is fairly stable (unless we get a massive breakthrough in precision fermentation soon, but that's hard to predict). Trees can dramatically lower costs and increase production.Austin argues that this is the best entry point to get many more trees into the landscape. When chosen well, these trees provide shade (a basic need), but more importantly, they offer feed during the most difficult periods of the year—like high summer, or specific fruits that drop in the autumn, full of sugar and energy, just as cows prepare for the colder winter months. Especially with pasture-raised pigs and poultry, you can save massively on expensive (organic) feed, which is mostly grain. And as a bonus, pastures grow better with partial shade.More about this episode on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/austin-unruh.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

In Côte d'Ivoire's cocoa and rubber farms, yields are dwindling due to deforestation and rising temperatures. In this episode we meet farmers like Gbagnon Jean-Pierre Lodugnon who have been farming those fields for a lifetime. Alongside fellow farmers Aicha Fofana and Lamini Zoungrana, Jean-Pierre faces a difficult choice: keep relying on traditional crops that no longer thrive—or make space for trees and embrace agroforestry.In this episode of Nature Answers, host Ivy Prosper explores how these farmers are navigating the trade-offs of short-term income versus long-term sustainability, and how government reforestation initiatives are changing minds and rebuilding the landscape.This episode was produced by Dominique Gené and edited by Tara Sprickerhoff  More about Nature Answers: Rural Stories from a Changing Planet at farmradio.org/natureanswersThis is a Farm Radio International podcast produced thanks to funding from the Government of Canada.

Michael Healy-Rae, who’s Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture with responsibility for forestry, says trees should be planted on peatlands.

Recorded at the CEPR Paris Symposium. At COPs or the WEF, we regularly hear about ambitious tree-planting initiatives. These massive programs have been praised as a way to motivate entire communities to join the fight against climate change, but do we know what their impact on the environment or the economy would be? An ingenious piece of research that evaluates a century-old environmental policy in the US gives us a valuable new insight into what planting trees, if done carefully, can achieve. Florian Grosset-Touba spoke to Tim Phillips about the history of tree-planting programmes, where and how to plant them, and the potential impact on the climate and the economy.

“A community is not resilient unless those benefits that we have from natural resources, like urban trees, are distributed in a way that all people are benefiting from them. And we do know that we have areas of the city that have lower canopy cover and some of those are associated also with lower income communities and marginalized communities.  And arguably those are the people [who] would be most benefited  by ecosystem services and the benefits of trees.”This week on the show, a conversation with Sarah Mincey and Hannah Gregory of Canopy Bloomington, an organization dedicated to community engagement with the urban forest.

Welcome to YourForest Podcast, where we explore the vital connections between environmental science, sustainability, and the essential role of forests. In today's episode join host Matthew Kristoff on YourForest Podcast for an inspiring conversation with Lauren Oakes, scientist, storyteller, and author of Tree Keepers: The Race for a Forested Future. This episode delves into the global reforestation movement, addressing the challenges and opportunities of using forests as a solution to climate change. Lauren unpacks the intricate debates surrounding tree planting versus forest restoration, highlighting the importance of thoughtful stewardship, community involvement, and long-term sustainability.Drawing from her research and personal experiences, Lauren explores how forests can be integrated into human and ecological systems, biodiversity benefits, and improved community well-being. She emphasizes the role of local support and economic incentives in sustaining reforestation projects. Whether discussing urban tree equity or global forest management, Lauren offers actionable insights to help listeners become active participants in creating a more resilient, forested future.

Planting lots of trees is one of many strategies being pursued to combat climate change.  Trees are storehouses of carbon from the atmosphere and planting more of them helps remove carbon dioxide.  But trees do more than that.  Trees are natural air conditioners in cities. Trees significantly cool urban environments by providing shade and via […]

In this Convo of Flanigan's Eco-Logic, Ted speaks with Andy Lipkis, Founder of TreePeople, who served as President for five decades. He is currently a Project Executive at Accelerate Resilience LA (ARLA). Andy is a pioneer of urban and community forestry, urban watershed management, and urban climate resilience, dedicating his life to healing the environment while improving the lives of individuals and communities.Andy grew up in southwest LA and began planting trees to rehabilitate smog and fire damaged Los Angeles–area forests when he was 15 years old. At 18, he founded TreePeople, bringing together people, trees, and forest-inspired ‘green infrastructure' to protect cities against droughts and floods, prevent water and air pollution, and mitigate and adapt to climate change. Andy served as a consultant to the City of Los Angeles as a program planner and public engagement and education facilitator. TreePeople's work in LA provided a model for environmental, economic, and social sustainability in cities everywhere. He created a greener future for Los Angeles by inspiring people, along with their local governments, to plant and care for trees and harvest and conserve the rain. Since its founding, TreePeople volunteers have been responsible for the planting of more than 2 million trees and counting. Its environmental education program reaches more than 200,000 students per year, with millions of children touched over the decades.With climate change impacts already creating a chronic emergency for cities around the world, Andy's work has demonstrated promising new ways for individuals, communities and government agencies to collaboratively reshape urban tree canopy and water infrastructure to save lives and grow a more livable future. After retiring from TreePeople in 2019, Andy launched Accelerate Resilience LA, a fiscally sponsored project of Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors to inspire and enable people and local governments to equitably accelerate climate resilience in Los Angeles.He shares with Ted that his personal mission is to inform, inspire, engage, and support people and communities to participate in restoring the healthy functioning of an ecosystem so it can abundantly provide life support services. He highlights the power of individuals and communities to make a positive impact, and the great need that exists to heal our environment. He and Ted discuss the numerous programs that increased citizen involvement in urban tree planting and care, which led him to being recognized by Johnny Carson.

This week on The Naked Scientists, we're taking a look at trees. We look at how they communicate, the diseases they are fighting, and how beneficial to the climate planting trees really is... Like this podcast? Please help us by supporting the Naked Scientists

TakeawaysIt is important to provide food on your property year-round to attract and retain deerYoung bucks are often killed on the side of the road during this time of year as they disperse from their birthplaceUnderstanding the layout of your property and creating a plan is crucial for successful land managementResidual herbicides can help prevent weed growth in food plotsConsulting can be a positive experience, but there are challenges such as sleeping in motels and dealing with awkward encounters with listeners The hunting community is diverse and filled with interesting encounters and experiences.Land management and consulting can be challenging, but also rewarding when clients understand and implement the advice given.Timing for hunting can vary depending on weather conditions, but the last week of October and the first week of November are often good periods to target.Leaving a legacy in the hunting community should involve using one's platform to spread faith, speak the truth, and stand on principles.Memorial Day is a time to remember and honor the sacrifices made by soldiers and their families.Sound Bites"If my plots taste better than anything around, guess where the deer is going to be in my plots.""These deer that are being hit on the road are these young bucks that have just dispersed from their birthplace in recent weeks.""The whole idea of not providing food at certain times of the year is absolutely plumb ridiculous.""Is this really who I think it is?""I love hearing that kind of stuff.""I know within 30 minutes if this client is going to get it"

Bible Reading: Galatians 6:6-10Tired and sweaty, Gabriel came into the house. "Mom! Do we have any more lemonade? It's like a billion degrees out there." "I'm making lemonade right now," Mom said. "I can't believe the weather we're having this early in the year! I'm surprised you and Max are playing basketball in this heat." "It's basketball season," Gabriel said, as if that would explain everything. "We're going to sit in the shade of the oak tree while we drink lemonade and cool off." "Good idea," said Mom. "And since you're taking a break from basketball, why don't you and your brother help me sort these things when you finish your lemonade?" Gabriel frowned. "Do we have to? I mean, we will if you say we have to, but…" He paused and looked at the piles of new and used items on the table and floor. "You're giving all those things to the organization that helps people in need and tells them about Jesus, right?" he asked. "We've done that before, but then we never hear anything more about it. If it does any good, we never see it." "Well, we do get reports now and then," Mom assured him. She stared out the window a moment. "But even when we don't, it's like that old oak tree in the backyard."Gabriel looked up, puzzled. "It is?""Your great-grandfather planted that tree as a sapling, knowing he'd never enjoy its cool, refreshing shade on a hot afternoon." Mom smiled at Gabriel. "But he planted it anyway.""And now we enjoy the shade on hot days," said Gabriel.Mom nodded and put glasses of cold lemonade on a tray. "We don't always see the fruit of our labors right away--if ever. We help others because of the love Jesus has shown us, and we want them to know about His love too. We can trust Him to use our efforts to bring more people to faith in Him, maybe now or maybe years from now. He doesn't waste any work that's done for Him."Gabriel picked up the tray with the lemonade and started for the door. Then he stopped and looked back at his mom. "We'll come help you as soon as this lemonade is gone," he told her. –Mike DizeHow About You?Do you wonder if the good things you do for others even make a difference? We can't always see how our work for God affects others, but God puts all the things we do for Him to good use, whether we see the results right away or not at all. So keep doing things that show others the love of Jesus. He promises that anything you do for Him will not be in vain--it will not be useless. Trust Him to bless others through your efforts and help more people know about Him.Today's Key Verse:Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. (NIV) (1 Corinthians 15:58)Today's Key Thought:God's work never goes to waste

Our question this week comes from a father and his two young boys. They want to know whether it's possible to plant enough trees to soak up all the extra carbon we are putting into the atmosphere? The quest to find answers takes us to a remote re-forestation project in the Carpathian Mountains in Romania which could be a model for other projects looking to tackle the climate crisis through reforestation. We speak to experts to find out how much tree planting and reforestation can do in helping combat the climate crisis.
