TREES: THE KEY TO CLIMATE PROOFING OUR CITIES- London, 10th July 2008.
A 10% increase in urban tree cover could neutralise rising city
temperatures, but large trees with irreplaceable climate-control benefits
are being lost at an alarming rate. This pioneering conference explores
practical possibilities to reverse tree loss within current planning
framework. It can be done: our objective is to define how to do it. FINAL
BOOKINGS NOW AT WWW.TREEWORKS.CO.UK/SEMINARS

Daniel,
We had a similar situation last year, but it is less pronounced this
year. All we can do is hope that a natural parasitic or predatory insect
starts to take and interest. We actually haven't lost anymore trees than
might be expected. I'm sure if already stressed tree are continually
defoliated over a protracted period that some may well turn their toes
up.
Ron.

We seem to have a heavy infestation in the Lewes District Area (Sussex)
- the first sightings were only two years ago and now it seems to be on
every HC is see! What's it like elsewhere and what is the prognosis for
Horse Chestnut in the light of Bleeding Canker (also prolific
hereabouts)?
