How do trees communicate? Which species' bark was used as a kind of antiseptic chewing gum in the Stone Age? These and other fascinating facts and stories came up during my chat with author, environmentalist and Trust ambassador, Jon Drori CBE.
Jon's love of nature grew from childhood visits to Kew Gardens and parents who encouraged him to view nature scientifically and also for its beauty. Both perspectives shine through in his books, Around the World in 80 Trees and Around the World in 80 Plants. We're joined too by Leila who quizzes Jon on topics popular among young people, including climate change and what future generations can do to save the environment.
