"Twelve Trees: The Deep Roots of Our Future" November 13th at 6:00 p.m. ET

 The world today is undergoing the most rapid environmental transformation in human history—from climate change to deforestation. Scientists, ethnobotanists, indigenous peoples, and collectives of all kinds are closely studying trees and their biology to understand how and why trees function individually and collectively in the ways they do. For his new book, Twelve Trees: The Deep Roots of Our Future, historian Daniel Lewis went on a global journey to learn about twelve iconic trees in their habitats, including two species found in North Carolina—the longleaf pine and bald cypress. In this talk, Lewis will reveal what he learned of nature and survival through all twelve and will share insights into the ways in which humans and trees are interconnected.
