Summary

The Miyawaki Method of micro-forestry is a viral sensation: sprouting tiny, dense, native tree cover in neighbourhoods all around the world. With the promise of afforestation at a revolutionary speed, this planting technique has become the darling of green-space enthusiasts, industry, and governments alike — yet few professional or academic ecologists have commented on its efficacy, or even seem to have heard of it! In this episode, we debate the legacy of Dr. Akira Miyawaki: the man, the myth, and the method. — — — Visit futureecologies.net for photos, a transcript, and citations for this episode If you appreciate the existence of independent, ad-free podcasting, you can support us — at patreon.com/futureecologies
