#PROTECT

WITH RUPERT KOOPMAN, PRECIOUS MABUZA, YVETTE HARVEY-BROWN AND MASHUDU PHALANNDWA

Tree conservation

We’re turning to an international expert to better understand the state of trees globally, but we also zoom into a threatened South African tree species, to see how it is faring in a challenging environment. Of course, we can’t talk about trees and not refer to one of the biggest threats – the shot-hole borer. So we’ll find out how you can get involved in addressing this (and other) threats to our indigenous species. We’re joined by Yvette Harvey-Brown, Precious Mabuza and Mashudu Phalanndwa.
