Tree Protection Orders are designed to preserve valuable trees, but many are cut down despite being protected. The panel offer their solutions to this problem.
This week's programme was recorded in front of an audience at Bolton-le-Sands in Lancashire.
The questions they posed the panel included whether rockets are more damaging to the ozone layer because they deposit their pollution high in the atmosphere. What can be done to enforce Tree Preservation Orders. Can moles be eradicated humanely; are the British Isles moving westward and why might Lancashire fields be filled with un-harvested crops.
The panel members this week are marine biologist Dr Ros Taylor of Kingston University; and Professor Philip Stott, an environmental scientist from the University of London and Sally Roberts, Chairman of the Lancaster Federation of Women's Institutes.
