#162 Science Shorts: Dr Nina Friggins. Are trees always the answer to climate change? Carbon / sequestering / emergency / Scotland / science / soil / heather / moorland
After our fascinating discussion last week with Dr Jason Goldman about sea otter reintroductions to the west coast of Canada, we are shifting from the marine environment to the terrestrial one, and from fauna to flora, and possibly the greatest threat and challenge of our time: climate change. Are trees always the answer for carbon sequestration? Dr Nina Friggins walks us through a new study which answers this question.
