And it's just that we're just too busy.
Like one of the things I learned about gardening is the less you do, the better your garden is.
So like if a branch falls off a tree, particularly in the hot weather, a lot of branches are falling off trees at the moment.
We would usually clear that away.
If you just leave it underneath the tree that it fell off, the tree will eat itself.
And that will feed itself.
But if you clear away that branch, it can't feed itself.
And also, if you leave a dead branch... They're like aliens, aren't they, trees?
Literally, they are.
They are a different... You know, they were here before us.
And we only exist because of them.
There's a brilliant book called the... It's either called The Under or The Overstory, which won the Pulitzer Prize, which tells the story.

They're literally migrating.
