Letter: Tree planting (Image: Lesley Tate)
VIRTUALLY everything I read about the countryside has mention of the millions of trees that are being planted. Can I suggest that the majority of these should be fruit trees.
That way, when the majority of agricultural land has been built on, re-wilded or been sacrificed to the great gods of wind and solar power and the import of food is severely curtailed by world instability, we can at least go scrumping so we won’t starve.
