SUMMARY:The Trees are Speaking by Lynda Mapes
DESCRIPTION:The old-growth forests of Oregon and Washington play a vital role in the ecosystems there\, supporting a wide diversity of life and sequestering carbon in enormous\, long-living trees. The east coast\, by contrast\, has been logged and clear cut for generations and has precious little old-growth forest left. Join environmental journalist and Bullard Fellow at Harvard Forest\, Lynda Mapes\, for a talk about her book “The Trees are Speaking: Dispatches from the Salmon Forests.” In this thought-provoking new book\, Mapes interviews scientists\, loggers\, and Indigenous activists to answer deep questions about the importance of old-growth forests\, the conflicting desires around how to manage them\, and how we can protect these forests into the future. \n\n\n\nThis talk takes place in the Hunnewell Lecture Hall. There is public parking on Arborway\, but parking can get tight with large programs like this: please give yourself some extra time to park and walk to the Hunnewell Building. \n\n\n\nAccessibility: The lecture hall is wheelchair-accessible. \n\n\n\nAudience: This program is geared towards adults. \n\n\n\nInclement weather policy: Participants will be notified via email at least one day in advance if a program needs to be cancelled due to inclement weather\, and will be notified by phone if a program must be cancelled with less one day’s notice. Click here to view our full inclement weather policy. If you have questions about the status of a program\, please email publicprograms@arnarb.harvard.edu (inbox monitored on weekdays) or call the Visitor Center desk between 10:00am and 4:00pm at (617) 384-5209.
