A radical blueprint for saving the world's woodlands through science, justice, and care.
In Forest Knowledge, New York Times bestselling author and forester Peter Wohlleben joins forest ecologist Dr. Pierre L. Ibisch to reveal forests as astonishing, sophisticated superorganisms. Drawing on cutting-edge research, they show how forests cool the planet, store water, shelter biodiversity, and safeguard us from climate chaos if we let them grow old enough. Yet industrial logging, short-term profits, and failing policies are pushing these ecosystems past their limits. Blending vivid, engaging writing with a bold twenty-point manifesto, Forest Knowledge charts a hopeful, science-based path to protect forests as a global commons and secure a just, livable future.
