'I really enjoy working on Costing the Earth, because it has the time to get its teeth into a subject and the resources to look at it critically. I hope it manages to say something new about most of the subjects it covers.'

Wildlife Gardens
Put all Britain's gardens together and you have more open space than the country's combined national parks. Gardens probably have the more plant species per square metre than any other habitat on earth - more even than the rainforests. Increasingly, gardens are seen as important part of conservation, and as a result gardeners are being bombarded with advice about how to tend their plots in a "wildlife-friendly" manner. But how much of this advice is backed up by sound science?
In Costing the Earth this week, Alex Kirby investigates听- and separates the facts from the mythology.
