Dr. Cathy Fitzgerald's talk, "Stories for a Wiser Forestry," at Edinburgh Botanic Gardens on March 27, 2023, addressed "The Right Tree in the Right Place." Responding to urgent IPCC warnings, she advocates for wiser ecological permanent forestry as an alternative to ecocidal clear-fell monoculture, fostering enduring well-being.

Fitzgerald's work, including her Hollywood Forest Story blog at HollywoodForest.com, details transforming a 2-acre conifer plantation into a resilient mixed-species forest. This innovative case study, recognized by Creative Carbon Scotland (link), promotes a shift to a life-promoting Symbiocene era. Her ecoliteracy courses at HaumeaEcoversity.ie further advance this global cultural shift towards sustainability.
