And now our weekly Trees series which looks at the important role that Trees play in our lives. This week Monica visits the John F Kennedy Arboretum in New Ross Co Wexford where they grow a big collection of trees from all over the world. These trees are nice to look at and the arboretum is a beautiful place to visit but there is also research and conservation work being carried there too. The results of this work are proving to be particularly important given the weather changes we are experiencing due to global warming.
