I guess that means they'll be planting up the field of Culloden.

Scots pine or Oak?

Excellent article and I LOVED hearing about the fantastic environmental work the Scots are selflessly performing. Thank you for sharing your experience during July Caroline.

Disregard the insecure comments.

All environmental steps and restoration of our planet benefits our future generation.

"Scots are selflessly performing."
A little bit of 'hype' there, here is an example of "Scots are selflessly performing."

Your remark belittles real selfless acts, and leaves readers scoffing.

"Disregard the insecure comments."
The comments so far on this subject have been far form 'insecure'.
...more overstatement.
Planting trees are not 'selfless', quite the opposite, it has self interest. However, re-introducing similar species, to replace those now extinct, into any area, is 'contraversial' at best.
Your loyalty to Caroline is to be admired.

I disagree with your comments Stuart.

Too many to list.

You have generalised regarding my comment to Caroline, about the Scottish Landholders that Caroline referred to in her article.

So be it.

'I disagree with your comments Stuart.'
...fully expected.

Too many to list.
'Cop out' on Your part

'You have generalised'.
Ironic...
but not a general as Your good self.
I do admire Your brevity.
StuartG
ps. and the continued loyalty.
