Different version on TED Radio Hour  https://www.npr.org/programs/ted-radio-hour/?showDate=2018-07-06

the TED version notes that birch trees supply carbon to Douglas-fir trees when it is leafed-out and photopsynthesizing – so do foresters now recognize the importance of deciduous trees in forests in which their focus is rapid growth of the conifer as a timber species? Have any changes resulted in forest management?
