The Future of UK Treescapes is a research programme aiming to help #climate resilience, #biodiversity and community involvement through and in the UK's #forests and #woodlands. https://www.uktreescapes.org/. https://bsky.app/profile/uktreescapes.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/uktreescapes.bsky.social/post/3m4sf3mlzuj2jForests are important to humans, not just as carbon sinks or for biodiversity, but also for wellbeing. Our Impact & Insights Note explores research from from Connected Treescapes on the value of treescapes for our mental and physical health 🌳🍃 .

In turn, our behaviours can help trees perform vital functions such as pollination.
