Series Two of Wood for the Trees takes a closer look at the issues raised in our short films about the future of UK forests.

Determined to understand the future of English woodlands, Tom and Charly continue their quest to ask awkward questions and share their learning. This film asks if it's possible to plant enough trees in the UK to sequester our carbon emissions. With animations from Robin Lane Roberts that make the math’s look beautiful.

WOODFORTHETREES
REWILDING THE TREESCAPE
In 2021 we met Alastair Driver of Rewilding Britain at the Knepp Estate to find out how trees fit into the Rewilding process. Are all of the trees in a rewilding project naturally regenerated or is there space for tree planting? Does management happen on a rewilding project? Alastair answers these question and others thoughtfully and thoroughly.
SMALLWOODLANDS - CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
In part six of Woodforthetrees, Doug King-Smith talks about the challenges and rewards of managing The Hillyfield Woodland Farm on Dartmoor. Introduced by Tom Barnes.
A BETTER FUTURE FOR OUR WOODLANDS
12 ideas to help British forests grow.
In 2019 there was a lot of talk about how tree planting could solve many of the environmental problems we are facing. We wanted to explore the issues around this by starting a series of interviews with woodland experts from different perspectives and backgrounds. We called the series Wood for the Trees and asked our guests about their hopes and fears for the future of British forests. We asked every participant to tell us what one policy suggestion they would give to the UK government. This short film presents those ideas and suggestions.
