Jake Robinson's book Treewilding explores our complex relationship with trees, challenging readers to understand trees as intricate living systems beyond their traditional #urban roles. The #book introduces the concept of 'holobionts', highlighting how trees are deeply interconnected #ecosystems hosting numerous microbes and organisms.

Key themes include:

Ecological #Complexity: Trees are not just physical structures but dynamic, interconnected living systems

Environmental #Resilience: Understanding tree ecosystems can help design more #sustainable urban spaces

#Indigenous Knowledge: Emphasizing the importance of local and Indigenous leadership in #forest #restoration.

The book provides fascinating insights, such as the remarkable fact that #bacteria from a single 5-tonne tree could wrap around the Amazon Rainforest's perimeter over 1,000 times. Robinson also explores how small urban forest patches can surprisingly host diverse species, demonstrating the potential for #ecosystem #regeneration.

Treewilding ultimately invites readers to rethink trees as vital, complex systems essential to urban #health and environmental #sustainability.
