About this listen

In this episode, we’re going to focus on the laws and policies that are supposed to protect our tree canopy. Who decides what stays and what gets cut down? Do our laws actually protect trees or just make them easier to remove? And what does it say about our values when a mango tree is not even considered a tree? Guests include Chris Baraloto (biologist), Christian Camacho (arborist), Jane Gilbert (Miami Dade County), Phil Stoddard (former mayor of South Miami), and Malcolm Lauredo (local historian).
