Check out researchers Alison Greenaway and Robin Simcock taking part in a Radio NZ interview about trees in the urban environment, with a focus on the Wynyard Quarter in Auckland.

Transforming Cities researcher, Dr Margaret Stanley (School of Biological Sciences, University of Auckland) and Landcare Research's Alison Greenaway and Robin Simcock featured on This Way Up - slices of life for curious minds Radio New Zealand National on Saturday 16 August,  12.25pm.

This facinating discussion about trees in the urban environment focuses on the Wynyard Quarter, but relates to wider work that Dr Stanley is leading with human geographer, Professor Robin Kearns (School of Environment) and colleagues from Landcare, Massey University (SHORE) and Unitec, entitled “Seeing the wood for the trees: Exploring variability in the valuing of trees and biodiversity in a transforming Auckland.”
