The Once and Future Forest: California's Iconic Redwoods

from $23.40

Essays by various authors. “Coast redwood and giant sequoia forests are true wonders of the world. These trees support rare layers of life found nowhere else on Earth, some in the highest reaches of their canopies. Redwoods can even play a significant role in slowing climate change, as they store substantially more carbon from the atmosphere per acre than any other forest the world over. They are ancient marvels to behold, and they have withstood eons of change.” - Sam Hodder, President and CEO of Save the Redwoods League
