Stressed trees make noise.
Scientists recorded drought-struck plants emitting ultrasonic clicks, basically screams, too high for human ears.
The forest is a lot louder than you think. π³

Some bamboo grows up to 35 inches in a single day.
You could literally watch it grow.
The fastest carbon-capturing plant on Earth is also a grass. π

Hyperion, a coast redwood in California, stands about 380 feet tall.
That's taller than the Statue of Liberty, pedestal included.
And it started as a seed smaller than a tomato seed. π²

Mangroves can store up to 4x more carbon per acre than tropical rainforests.
They also protect coastlines from storms and nurse baby fish.
The most underrated tree on the planet. π

In 2005, scientists planted a date palm seed that was 2,000 years old.
It sprouted.
Nature plays the long game. π΄

One mature tree absorbs about 22 kg of COβ a year.
Plant 1,000 trees and that's 22 tonnes pulled from the air, every year, for decades.
Small seeds. Big math. π±

Forests absorb roughly 1/3 of the COβ we emit from fossil fuels.
They're the cheapest climate technology we have, and they run on sunlight and water.
Protect them. Plant more. π³

Shame on you @Google.
You preach βdonβt be evilβ while illegally clear-cutting 250,000 trees in Finland for a data centerβturning ancient forest into a mud wasteland without even doing the required environmental checks.
Tech giant. Nature zero.

Hot take: your city's best air conditioner is a tree.
Tree canopy can cool streets by several degrees. No electricity bill, no refrigerants, and shade is free.
Cities need more trees. πΏ

Atmospheric COβ is above 420 ppm. Before the Industrial Revolution it was about 280.
The last time it was this high, humans didn't exist.
We can't undo the past. We can plant the future. π

Did you know that the Appalachian temperate rainforest in the United States receives so much rainfall that it's actually classified as a rainforest? It's located in the southern Appalachian Mountains and covers about 351,500 square kilometers (135,000 square miles) of forest land

So, if you ever feel like taking a walk on the wild side, consider adding this unique rainforest to your travel bucket list. Just don't forget your umbrella - it's Europe, after all!

Did you know that Europe is home to one of the last remaining rainforests in the world? Yes, you heard that right! The Perucica rainforest in Bosnia and Herzegovina is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a rare gem in Europe's climate landscape.

Trees are time machines! A single mature oak can absorb 48 pounds of CO2 annually, helping combat climate change. But did you know some bristlecone pines are over 5,000 years old, living links to the dawn of civilization?

Trees can actually taste the air! Through tiny pores called stomata, they absorb air and can detect pollutants, helping them decide when to close up to protect themselves. Nature's air purifiers with a built-in quality sensor!

We've had this little pear tree for years, but have never had a single pear on it.... until now!
This year it's gone mad! π²
So weighed down with pears that branches have snapped! π
