Krátky popis
'The very treeline is on the move: a devastating image. This book
is an evocative, wise and unflinching exploration of what it will
mean for humanity.' Jay GriffithsThe Arctic treeline is the
frontline of climate change, where the trees have been creeping
towards the pole for fifty years already. These vast swathes of
forests, which encircle the north of the globe in an almost
unbroken green ring, comprise the world's second largest
biome.Scientists are only just beginning to understand the
astonishing significance of these northern forests for all life on
Earth.Six tree species - Scots pine, birch, larch, spruce, poplar
and rowan - form the central protagonists of Ben Rawlence's story.
In Scotland, northern Scandinavia, Siberia, Alaska, Canada and
Greenland, he discovers what these trees and the people who live
and work alongside them have to tell us about the past, present and
future of our planet. At the treeline, Rawlence witnesses the
accelerating impact of climate change and the devastating legacies
of colonialism and capitalism.But he also finds reasons for hope.
Humans are creatures of the forest, we have always evolved with
trees. The Treeline asks us where our co-evolution might take us
next.Deeply researched and beautifully written, The Treeline is a
spellbinding blend of nature, travel and science writing,
underpinned by an urgent environmental message.
