Treeconomy
"The nature of value. The value of nature."
In this definitive guide, leading UK tree consultant Tom Thompson reveals the hidden financial and social engine of our urban forests.
Treeconomy
The Science of Urban ValueThe Manifesto
A New Asset Class
Treeconomy dismantles the myth that urban development and nature are at odds. It presents a surgical approach to arboriculture, proving that trees are the single most efficient investment for the future of our cities.
Tom Thompson explores the precision required to integrate nature into high-stakes urban economics. From the biological imperative of the root system to the psychological standard of living, this book defines the "Bonsai Method"—small interventions with massive systemic returns.
Through years of advising on complex UK developments, Tom has quantified the invisible currency of nature. Treeconomy provides the framework to manage natural capital with the same rigor as a financial portfolio.
