Here's what we uncovered this week:🌱 Monday 135 - Street Trees and Soil MicrobiotaWe opened the week underground, exploring how microbial life in the rhizosphere supports urban street trees. Bacteria, fungi, and endophytes form biochemical alliances that boost tree health, immunity, and resilience.🧷 Tuesday 136 - GroundieWe celebrated the essential role of the ground worker in tree care. Groundies are the backbone of every crew, providing safety, support, and coordination on the ground. Inspired by Jeff Jepson's book, this episode is a tribute to skill and teamwork.✂️ Wednesday 137 - Lightning and TreesMidweek struck with energy as we examined lightning's impact on trees. From decay to habitat creation, we discussed how lightning shapes ecosystems and when arborists should install protection systems for vulnerable trees.📋 Thursday 138 - Trees and CancerCould trees help prevent cancer? We explored emerging research linking green spaces to reduced cancer risk, including lower breast cancer rates in urban areas. Though evidence is still evolving, the episode makes a strong case for trees in public health.✨ Friday 139 - International Society of Arboriculture = ISAWe highlighted ISA's century of dedication to tree care.
