Description
The Heartbeat of Trees by Peter Wohlleben explores the profound interactions between humans and nature. Drawing on new scientific discoveries, Wohlleben reveals how trees have heartbeats and roots that extend underground, and how this affects our connection to the natural world. In an era of climate change, many of us fear we've lost our link to nature, but Wohlleben is convinced that age-old ties remain alive. He shares how to see, feel, smell, hear, and even taste the forest, offering a wondrous cosmos where humans are part of nature. This book is perfect for anyone looking to reconnect with the natural world. By exploring the language of the forest, the consciousness of plants, and the boundary between flora and fauna, Wohlleben shows how conservation and environmental activism can be about saving ourselves, too.
