How a Northern Forest will increase the UK's tree coverage

Radio 4 in Four

Available for over a year

Today, around 13% of the UK is covered with trees - but that figure is set to get a boost with various new planting projects, including the 'Northern Forest' of 50 million trees between Liverpool and Hull, and promises in the government's recent 25-Year Environment Plan to support the creation of large woodlands. Sybil Ruscoe chats to Richard Greenhouse from the Forestry Commission about the state of our woodlands today. First broadcast on 12 February 2018.
