A new voice.

Yeah, so for me personally, I've got quite a bit of a different role to undertake with the management of the woodland and stuff like that.
4:21
Obviously the land's not been managed for quite some time now, so there is some trees that are going to cause issues in the future because of uncertainty and decline.
4:31
So obviously my kind of role now is to kind of bring Haig Woodlands up to a safe aspect for the community to enjoy again and hopefully over the next 20-30 years reinstate it back to its former glory.

Oh, sambuca.
11:06
Yeah, exactly.
11:07
So what you tend to find is obviously with that type of trees, they grow quite fast.
11:12
And they're not the most desirable, but they do offer... quite nice purposes within a woodland.
14:18
So if they're filtering bad stuff out and then putting it back into the water, how is that cleaning the harbor?
14:26
Right.
14:26
So there's two ways that they can either bind up or transform pollutants.
14:32
So in that process of creating pseudofeces, what they're doing is sort of taking it from the water and depositing it and burying it into the sediment.
14:40
So it, it stays there in many cases, and that's a good thing.
14:44
But for some of the pollutants, they can actually get rid of it entirely.
14:48
So in many estuaries, too much nitrogen is one of the biggest pollutants.

Why do oysters live in the ocean but not in the lake?
