An illuminating manifesto on ancient forests: how they adapt to climate change by passing their wisdom through generations, and why our future lies in protecting them. In his beloved book The Hidden Life of Trees, Peter Wohlleben revealed astonishing discoveries about the social networks of trees and how they communicate. Now, in The Power of Trees, he turns to their future, with a searing critique of forestry management, tree planting, and the exploitation of old growth forests. As human-caused climate change devastates the planet, forests play a critical role in keeping it habitable. While politicians and business leaders would have us believe that cutting down forests can be offset by mass tree planting, Wohlleben offers a warning: many tree planting campaigns lead to ecological disaster. Not only are these trees more susceptible to disease, flooding, fires, and landslides, we need to understand that forests are more than simply a collection of trees. Instead, they are ecosystems that consist of thousands of species, from animals to fungi and bacteria. The way to save trees, and ourselves? Step aside and let forests--which are naturally better equipped to face environmental challenges--heal themselves. With the warmth and wonder familiar to readers from his previous books, Wohlleben also shares emerging scientific research about how forests shape climates both locally and across continents; that trees adapt to changing environmental conditions through passing knowledge down to their offspring; and how old growth may in fact have the most survival strategies for climate change. At the heart of The Power of Trees lies Wohlleben's passionate plea: that our survival is dependent on trusting ancient forests, and allowing them to thrive."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S121C2070473</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S121C2070473</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wohlleben, Peter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2070473121</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>How Ancient Forests Can Save Us If We Let Them</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781771647748/MC.GIF&amp;client=snoislepo&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Forest Walking]]></title><description><![CDATA["When you walk in the woods, do you use all five senses to explore your surroundings? For most of us, the answer is no--but when we do engage all our senses, a walk in the woods can go from pleasant to immersive and restorative. Forest Walking teaches you how to get the most out of your next adventure by becoming a forest detective, decoding nature's signs and awakening to the ancient past and thrilling present of the ecosystem around you. What can you learn by following the spread of a root, by tasting the tip of a branch, by searching out that bitter almond smell? What creatures can be found in a stream if you turn over a rock--and what is the best way to cross a forest stream, anyway? How can you understand a forest's history by the feel of the path underfoot, the scars on the trees along the trail, or the play of sunlight through the branches? How can we safely explore the forest at night? What activities can we use to engage children with the forest? Throughout Forest Walking, the authors share experiences and observations from visiting forests across North America: from the rainforests and redwoods of the west coast to the towering white pines of the east, and down to the cypress swamps of the south and up to the boreal forests of the north. With Forest Walking, German forester Peter Wohlleben teams up with his longtime editor, Jane Billinghurst, as the two write their first book together, and the result is nothing short of spectacular. Together, they will teach you how to listen to what the forest is saying, no matter where you live or which trees you plan to visit next."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S121C2037131</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S121C2037131</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wohlleben, Peter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2037131121</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Discovering the Trees and Woodlands of North America</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781771643313/MC.GIF&amp;client=snoislepo&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do You Know Where the Animals Live?]]></title><description><![CDATA[Uses a thoughtful, easy-to-understand approach to teach children information about the various species of animals that share our planet, including where they live, what they eat, how they interact with their families, how they communicate, and what they think and feel.

From "veritable tree whisperer" (WSJ) and internationally celebrated author Peter Wohlleben comes the long-awaited graphic novel adaptation of one of the most beloved books of our time. "Wohlleben has listened to trees and decoded their language. Now he speaks for them." (NYRB)

Filled with breathtaking illustrations and scientific facts about the forest and the flora and fauna who call it home-this eye-opening book will delight readers young and old.

Are trees social beings? For forester Peter Wohlleben, the answer has always been yes, the forest is a social network. Trees live like human families: tree parents live together with their children, support them as they grow, share nutrients with those who are sick and struggling, and even warn each other of impending dangers.

This vibrantly illustrated graphic novel follows Peter as its loveable main character, revealing the secret network of the forest and sharing struggles and triumphs from his career protecting trees. Told in Peter's warm, conversational voice, not unlike that of a beloved grandfather chatting fireside, this visually stunning book offers scientific insights and pearls of wisdom gained from Peter's decades of observing forests, including how trees impact weather and climate, how they communicate with each other, and how they interact with fungal networks deep within the ground. It also offers poignant memories from Peter's personal life.

Featuring 240 pages of full-color illustrations and text covering the entirety of The Hidden Life of Trees, this adaptation honors the spirit of the original book by seeking to change the way the world looks at trees, and will inspire generations of readers to celebrate the natural world and protect our last remaining forests before it's too late.]]></description><link>https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C17761809</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C17761809</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wohlleben, Peter, Bernard, Fred]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/17761809981</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD</format><subtitle/><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781778401664/MC.GIF&amp;client=snoislepo&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our Little Farm]]></title><description><![CDATA[Called "a veritable tree whisperer" by the <I>Wall Street Journal</I>, Peter Wohlleben is known across the world for his illuminating books about forests and how to help them thrive.

Along the way, they made mistakes and abandoned some projects (sheep raising was not their thing) but maintained a sense of joy in their shared goal.<br/>Brimming with insights, wisdom, and tips on everything from constructing farm buildings to choosing the perfect chicken, <I>Our Little Farm</I> shows that, with a little grit, humor, and self-compassion, it's possible to live according to our values and to care for the earth even as we care for ourselves, our homes, and our families.<br/>]]></description><link>https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C10357611</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C10357611</guid><category><![CDATA[EAUDIOBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wohlleben, Peter, Wohlleben, Miriam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/10357611980</comments><format>EAUDIOBOOK</format><subtitle>Adventures in Sustainable Living</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798350889314/MC.GIF&amp;client=snoislepo&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Power of Trees]]></title><description><![CDATA[<br><b>"Another love letter from Wohlleben to the green world... makes the case for how we should allow forests throughout the world to regrow and in the process help heal not only the climate but us, as well."—Lydia Millet, <i>Oprah Daily</i></b><br><b>An illuminating manifesto on ancient forests: how they adapt to climate change by passing their wisdom through generations, and why our future lies in protecting them.</b><br>In his beloved book <i>The Hidden Life of Trees</i>, Peter Wohlleben revealed astonishing discoveries about the social networks of trees and how they communicate. Now, in <i>The Power of Trees</i>, he turns to their future, with a searing critique of forestry management, tree planting, and the exploitation of old growth forests.<br>As human-caused climate change devastates the planet, forests play a critical role in keeping it habitable. While politicians and business leaders would have us believe that cutting down forests can be offset by mass tree planting, Wohlleben offers a warning: many tree planting campaigns lead to ecological disaster. Not only are these trees more susceptible to disease, flooding, fires, and landslides, we need to understand that forests are more than simply a collection of trees. Instead, they are ecosystems that consist of thousands of species, from animals to fungi and bacteria. The way to save trees, and ourselves? Step aside and let forests—which are naturally better equipped to face environmental challenges—heal themselves.<br><b>With the warmth and wonder familiar to readers from his previous books,</b> Wohlleben also shares emerging scientific research about how forests shape climates both locally and across continents; that trees adapt to changing environmental conditions through passing knowledge down to their offspring; and how old growth may in fact have the most survival strategies for climate change.<br>At the heart of <i>The Power of Trees</i> lies Wohlleben's passionate plea: that our survival is dependent on trusting ancient forests, and allowing them to thrive.<br><b>Published in Partnership with the David Suzuki Institute.</b>]]></description><link>https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C9452290</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C9452290</guid><category><![CDATA[EAUDIOBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wohlleben, Peter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sno-isle.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/9452290980</comments><format>EAUDIOBOOK</format><subtitle>How Ancient Forests Can Save Us if We Let Them</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781771647762/MC.GIF&amp;client=snoislepo&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Forest Walking]]></title><description><![CDATA[<br><b>Awaken your senses and make the most out of your next walk in the woods—with Peter Wohlleben, <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author of <i>The Hidden Life of Trees</i>.</b><br><b>"This book will fast-track you into the joys of spending time amongst the trees."—Tristan Gooley, author of <i>The Lost Art of Reading Nature's Signs</i> and <i>How to Read Water</i></b><br><b>"You'll be changed after reading this fine and enchanting book."—Richard Louv, author of <i>Our Wild Calling</i> and <i>Last Child in the Woods</i></b><br>When you walk in the woods, do you use all five senses to explore your surroundings?
