A PORTRAIT OF THE TREE by Adrian Houston (Greenfinch £30)
What gives us oxygen? What stores carbon? How can we stabilize our soil? How can we provide shelter, discovery, warmth, and the ability to store carbon? The tree is the obvious answer.
Adrian Houston’s stunning photography is paired with interesting stories and insights from Joanna Lumley or Alan Titchmarsh. This allows us to delve into the history, magnitude, and significance of the plants upon which we depend so heavily.
This breathtaking book is both a celebration of Britain’s favourite trees and an important message on the need for the UK to plant more of them in order to be carbon neutral by 2050 — 1.5 billion more, to be precise.
