About this listen

Do we understand what trees really are and how they contribute to sustaining and creating new life on Earth?

The author reviews the influence of technology on degrading our knowledge of and connection to nature, and how it has now become possible to formulate a radical, though clear, image of the true identity and ecological role of trees. Why are trees the largest biological interface with the power of wind? What astronomical rhythms have been demonstrated to activate their growth? What is critical to understand about tree form? Why are trees composed of piezoelectric crystal substances that produce electrical energy when stressed? How do trees influence the quality of the Earth’s water?

By bringing to the foreground what has been completely overlooked, a new vision of the essential role of trees is revealed. In addition, a novel understanding of the relationships and trajectory of nature and the Earth is made possible, along with new insights on the seas, organismal forms, and the origins of life.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
