The alleged British links to mass deforestation and displacement in a conflict few have even heard of

UK banks, energy giants and arms exporters are at the heart of one of the world's least-known human rights and environmental crises, our research has revealed.

Some tropical trees cool their leaves to survive the heat — but not all species have ways to cope

In full sun, tropical leaves can become much hotter than the surrounding air. Their ability to cope can be a matter of life or death.

The genius of trees: how forests have shaped humanity, from chocolate cravings to our ability to dream

Since our early ancestors came down from the canopy, we may think we have learned how to live without trees. But our lives remain intertwined in incredible ways

Novel research reveals thriving microbial life in trees phys.org/news/2025-08-reveals-…

A diverse and distinct #microbiome inside living trees nature.com/articles/s41586-025…

"A single tree hosts about one trillion #bacteria in its woody tissue... #microbes are partitioned between heartwood and sapwood with each having its own unique microbiomes with minimal similarity to other tissues... They are actively producing gases and cycling nutrients... these communities may have coevolved with #trees over time"

a figure from the linked paper that highlights various parts of a tree and connects them to graphs showing what types of microbes have been found in these parts

Novel research reveals thriving microbial life in trees

There's a thriving community of diverse microbes living in tree wood, a new study led by a Yale School of the Environment team of scientists has found. A single tree hosts about one trillion bacteria in its woody tissue.

'Hanging On'

A beautiful, large ancient oak tree with some remnants of autumn colour on a cold, frosty winter's morning. I've got many images of this tree, but I hope one day to have a set of nearly identical images through the different seasons.

Wishing everyone peaceful and happy holidays! Thank you so much for following along for what has been an incredible year (I'll reflect more on 2024 in another post). For now, here are 4 new winter images from Scotland's Ancient Caledonian Forest. Enjoy 😀

"The bottom line is that, globally, deforestation has gotten worse, not better, since the beginning of the decade.
We’re only six years away from a critical global deadline to end deforestation, and forests continue to be chopped down, degraded, and set ablaze at alarming rates,”
Ivan Palmegiani, consultant at the research group Climate Focus

Stop APRIL, Indonesia’s ruthless paper and pulp giant!

The paper giant APRIL/Royal Golden Eagle (RGE) and other companies owned by billionaire Sukanto Tanoto have been destroying the Indonesia's rainforests and the livelihoods of local communities for half a century.

Creative painting of a vertical river that is white in the middle and blue on the left, with two white and blue coloured birds flying above it. Left and right next to the river are the abstract blue and green shapes of trees. In the foreground left and right is a layer of somewhat transparant little pink shapes over the painting.

Guard Old-Growth Forests from Logging

Mature and old-growth forests are a vital part of a healthy planet. They fight climate change, support healthy watersheds and withstand wildfire better than young forests. Sadly, most old-growth forests have been logged. Help save what’s left.

At this time of year the eucalyptus trees shed their bark. Underneath the new bark can have the most amazing colours! The one eucalypt with the pink bark is called a "lemon eucalyptus" because it gives off the most beautiful lemony scent, especially on humid days like today!

How amusing that the link for "common plant" (to "explain" what a tree is) leads to the poem "Trees" by Joyce Kilmer poetryfoundation.org/poetrymag…

I have a theory that dappled light is a kind of nervous-system-calmer - like white noise for the body.

Only a few more days in Denver. It's been fun 😀

Concurrently, I am also looking forward to being back home and in the forest again.

Some dancing oak trees for New Year’s Eve.

I hope everyone has an awesome evening, whatever you’re doing.

I will be happily tucked up in bed well before midnight, but I know it’s a tough time for others. I’ve been in a dark place in years past, so I know what it can be like.

Just don’t ever feel like you are alone.

Tomorrow is new year; a chance for a fresh start. It’s a chance to find joy in the little moments that make up each day.
