The Lost Trees of Willow Avenue by Mike Tidwell - Tree Passages

Welcome, listeners, to Tree Book Passages, a podcast and shop [https://bookshop.org/shop/treebookpassages] featuring books about trees. We are Doug Still, arborist and host of This Old Tree podcast and Georgia Silvera Seamans, a lapsed arborist and host of the Your Bird Story podcast. In this episode, Doug and Georgia discuss their favorite passages from The Lost Trees of Willow Avenue by Mike Tidwell, founder of the Chesapeake Climate Action Network. We’ve heard much about the effects of anthropogenic climate change on extensive forests such as the Amazon rainforest. Tidwell’s focus on local forests, such as the street tree canopies of American cities, begins to fill a gap in the understanding of climate change impacts.
