Title
The End of Denial
Description
WE NO LONGER have the luxury of globally debating who or what is causing our climate crisis. At this point, it really doesn’t matter because the cost of doing nothing is catastrophic for Mother Earth.
Just one of the unintended consequences of our climate crisis is the giant Sequoia trees of the Sierra Nevada mountains. They are the largest living organisms on the planet and can grow over 300 feet tall. When they do die after 3,000 years or so, the oldest trees, known as monarchs, usually succumb to their own size and collapse. Their giant trunks will fall on the forest floor for another millennia.
