Abstract
In February 2008, the Department for Communities and Local Government published its long awaited report on urban trees in England entitled Trees in Towns II. The report assesses the urban tree population in England as well as identifying the policies and practice of urban tree management by English local authorities. This paper highlights the significance of this government report for the arboricultural industry. It also stresses the report's relevance to the growing debate about the importance of green infrastructure, sustainable cities and urban climate adaptation. Lastly, it explores the potential contribution of the arboricultural industry to achieving the aims of Trees in Towns II and the promotion of green infrastructure and sustainable cities.
