In this episode, Giulia sits down with Tobias Winkels to chat about all things trees. Grown in Germany and currently based in Prague, Tobi is fond of trees and other refuges of wilderness. As an arborist and tree-climber, he is currently focused on fostering habitat structures serving biodiversity in both natural and man-made landscapes. In their conversation, Tobi and Giulia explore different definitions of ‘economy’ whilst applying this broader concept to the moral implications of using nature as a role model.
