How Trees Talk to Each Other
Did you know trees have their own social networks? Trees can communicate – they send resources and information to other trees. When you walk through a forest, you are walking on a complex web that is buried beneath the soil. Trees are dependent on one another, resilient to change and can adapt to unforeseen circumstances just like humans.
Author and Professor of Forest Ecology, Suzanne Simard is a pioneer on the frontier of plant communication and intelligence; and has been hailed as a scientist who conveys complex, technical ideas in a way that is dazzling and profound.
