De Dream

Podcast Valerie Trouet

Stream De Dream

Together with Lex Bohlmeijer (Radio 4 / De Correspondent), Nynke interviews twelve scientists, philosophers and performing artists who inspire her. 

A few weeks ago Lex and Nynke had an online meeting with tree scientist Valerie Trouet. Based in Arizona, she researches climatic developments based on the annual rings of trees. Valerie's enthusiasm is infectious: "Have you ever looked at wood through a microscope? It's a beautiful material! Truly a combination of beauty and functionality. There's no end to the beautiful patterns, and each cell has its own specific function. There is so much diversity in it." At the same time, the results of her research are crystal clear: "We are really the frogs in the boiling water [...] Trees don't lie."
