  Starting from a Single Tree: an Ecological and Cultural Perspective on Ancient Forests of the Pacific Coast And Beyond

  4:30 PM ET

  Sponsored by:

  Environmental Studies

  Dan Well’s presentation, Starting from a Single Tree: an Ecological and Cultural Perspective on Ancient Forests of the Pacific Coast And Beyond, will start at the base of Iluvatar, a nearly 1700-year-old Coast Redwood Tree, and gradually expand our view outward, exploring ecology, culture and their intersections. Modern ecology tells us in a new language what many traditions from Buddhism to Indigenous North American beliefs have long known—that the world is deeply interconnected and interdependent not only more complex than we know, but more complex than we CAN know.
