Trees do a lot of things for us - they clean the air and soil, help to counter noise pollution and absorb carbon, among other things. But the tree population in the UK is changing. Species that aren’t native to the UK are being introduced. Climate change and our expanding towns and cities are affecting the types of trees that are growing and their locations.
