Summary
A novel assessment of the interplay between law and ecology in forest management
Trees are the embodiment of existence: abundant, regenerative, irrepressible. Yet as more of the planet undergoes profound and accelerating climate change, deforestation, loss of biotic diversity, and a pitiless spread of pests and pathogens, which trees—if any—will thrive are increasingly urgent questions. Managing healthy forests remains factually uncertain, an uneasy dance between law and science.
