Companies are destroying the last remaining pockets of untouched nature. Ancient forests, while being extremely important for the entire planet and the survival of all species —including humans —, are still being cut down for economic purposes. Which sometimes means making few people filthy rich, but also, empowering Indigenous communities; it’s a complex issue.
It appears that logging is a necessity but old trees need to be excluded from it to ensure ecological health. Studies show, for example, that ancient “mother trees” nurture young seedlings via a mycelial network.
I’ve learned this just now by watching a documentary called “The Last Stand” that Ms. Que Banh (@PhoenixSerenity) was interviewed for and shared today because it is now freely available.
I took the liberty to reshare it linked through the Invidious proxy to avoid YouTube/Google’s spying and prying.
