At our Monthly Meeting on 1 May our speaker was Rami Siam, who is in charge of the "green" areas of the M25.
Here we have a someone who is a passionate advocate for what he does and indeed makes a difference to the verges and surrounding areas of the motorway.
We really see so little of what he does as we rush past in our cars, except perhaps for the the litter on the slip road as you turn off at Godstone. The latter is a major problem throughout the length of the M25, and no one really understands why so many just throw their rubbish out of vehicles rather than take it home. It costs hundreds of thousands of pounds to clear.
Included in those "green" areas are a number of woodlands requiring care and attention. Trees happen to be one of Rami's specialisations, so they get well looked after, especially if diseases get into any of them.
An unusual and fascinating topic.
