Gaia is the entirety of the material Earth and all living organisms on it = the ecosphere. A self-regulating system that has evolved over 3.8 billion years.
FRED HAGENEDER’S GATEWAY TO THE MEANING OF TREES IN CULTURE AND CONSCIOUSNESS
Gaia is the entirety of the material Earth and all living organisms on it = the ecosphere. A self-regulating system that has evolved over 3.8 billion years.
Forests are essential organs in the metabolism of planet Earth, maintaining the balance of the ecosphere, global climate, and regional weather patterns.
The world’s forests are active players in maintaining the equilibrium of world climate, not just passive victims succumbing to global heating.
Pope Francis is calling for radical transformation of politics, economics, and individual mindsets and lifestyles to truly begin caring for the Earth.
In November 2012, Canada’s First Nations started a new incentive to raise their voices together. A new era of resourceful and peaceful protests has begun.
The global trend for higher temperatures and changing rain patterns is a growing cause for wildfires, but forest mismanagement is a huge factor too.
At the age of 95 Martin Litton (with his vintage Cessna 195) is still the guarding eye and voice for the Giant Sequoia National Monument Park in California.
Pressure on the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) mounts to stop intentionally excluding tree canopy effects on measurements and climate modelling.
The positive influence forests have on ocean ecology and biodiversity was put to good use by a Japanese oyster farmer who received a UN Forest Heroes Award.
Wangari Maathai, founder of the Green Belt Movement, which so far has planted 51 million trees and trained over 30,000 women, died on 25 September 2011.
