It's totally natural to blame something or someone when a disaster like this happens, but I reckon the scientists have it right on this one... I certainly hope so! |

They are always looking for a scapegoat, Dizzy but let the science tell the full story before condemning something. I believe the scientists have also got it right in this instance. |

i do hope that it works , Dave .. all signs seem promising at the moment . I watched the chap pumping the Biochar into the ground around the ash trees ... now we wait to see if it's had any effect on the large tree . Just a simple solution
