In this episode we explore the science of assessing the good things that forests do for us with PhD student Kathleen Conroy. Kathleen tells us about developing a tool to measure the benefits of forests for people. We'll talk about those benefits and a future where they may lead to financial support for farmers and landowners whose farms support nature.
