Ash to Ashes: Don’t Be Part of the Process

TCI Magazine Audio Edition ·

2025/06/01

BY CHRISTOPHER LULEY, PH.D. Billions upon billions of ash trees are dying or have been killed by emerald ash borer (EAB) in both urban and forested environments in the U.S. and Canada. (Photo 1) With time, the ash all will be returned back to the soil and air from whence they came. For better or for worse, arborists are often in the middle of this process of removal and renewal.

Developing Safety Programs That Stick

TCI Magazine Audio Edition ·

2025/06/01

BY DAVID VINCENT Safety programs are the lifeline of every company – they ensure everyone goes home at the end of the day in the same condition they arrived. Yet too often these programs become ineffective. They’re rolled out with fanfare, only to end up as binders gathering dust, neglected by leaders who see them as “someone else’s job” or training sessions no one remembers. Why? Because they fail to connect with the very people they’re designed to protect. Remember to subscribe to TCI Maga...

Buckthorn, an Invasive but Useful Pest

TCI Magazine Audio Edition ·

2025/05/12

BY MICHAEL HOPPE Originating in parts of Europe and Asia, Rhamnus cathartic, aka buckthorn, was brought to these shores intended to be a welcome addition to our native landscaping stock.

It’s Not Easy to Be a Role Model

TCI Magazine Audio Edition ·

2025/05/09

BY DAVID M. ANDERSON, CTSP A mentor of mine would always say to me, “You are what you put up with. You are not your safest job, you are your least safe job. You’re not your best employee, you are your worst. You are not your best client-service-interaction experience, you are your worst.” From this perspective, we can be driven to be our best – not perfect, but the best we can be.
