|
| FROM THE REDWOOD FOREST, Ancient Trees and the Bottom Line: A Headwaters Journey. Dunning. Although the Headwaters Grove contains trees that were growing before Christ was born, it was not until 1985 that chainsaws started finding them. In that year the local environmentally conscious lumber company was bought in a hostile takeover by an out of state company, one that specialized in “liquidation logging” for short-term profit. Although the mud runoff from such operations has long affected salmon populations, it wasn’t until entire towns were washed away and the media became involved in the work of individuals like Julia Butterfly Hill that things started to look up for these truly historic trees. In beautiful prose and with breathtaking photography, this new book documents what is left of the old growth redwood stands and why we should save them. #BP-8500.
