Ireland’s favourite force of nature, Éanna Ní Lamhna, is on a mission to open our hearts and minds to our wonderful, wild world – to help us find the balance between our needs and the future of our precious planet.

In her inimitable style, she tackles the questions you’re afraid to:

• How exactly does our wild world work?

• And why do we need to care now more than ever?

• Where do the swallows go in winter? And, more importantly, why do they come back?

• Why are all these spiders in my house anyway?

• And what did happen to the hole in the ozone layer?

• Are climate change and global warming the same thing?

• And are genetic engineering and windfarms really the way forward?

• Be prepared to learn, laugh and be surprised by Our Wild World ….

This guide was published in conjunction with the

Peoples Millennium Forest Project in 2000 and is designed

particularly as an aid to those who wish to learn more about growing native trees from seed.
