It's almost as if this is also a metaphor for how we should develop cities/communities or something...

@@dc2guy2 yea I'm busy writing a policy document for high rises. Something that I think is important is that in between high rises there should be a lot of living area where there's nature and places for people to interact. So we don't lose nature and don't get too isolated. I'm not really sure yet how. Still figuring things out. But I'd love to build high rises and bring jungle into the city

@@bobfuts I was thinking more along the lines of socioeconomic and racial diversity, but that sounds good too 😅

@@dc2guy2 Those are very important things as well, though already more integrated in my city! We are aware that we want to mix all kinds of people (age, money and cultural wise) It's good for society! Helps understand and remember who we are. Though maybe it could be locked more into policy, so thank you for this idea! And you're right! It is alike to the canopy. Everyone in all stages needs light and room to grow. Just like the bottom of an old forest :) Otherwise nothing new can grow

It's not good​@@bobfuts

I have a feeling most of us are here due to that Reddit post (and the comment that linked this channel!), this is information that really needs to be spread

@@tuononnovainbici The power of community ⚡💪✨

​@@tuononnovainbici yep. I'm not even on Reddit. I lurk there a lot.

Not if we want to live in a modern society with several billion people

​@@ianhopno. The resources are poorly allocated and all get sihponed into mega-capitalist hands. This planet could sustain billions more, with everyone living comfortably, if we didn't have a select few parasites

we can actually cause nature to grow faster and with more mass than it would on its own if we know what were doing

Хз вообще

плантация деревьев не может повторить лес, который был прежде. как следствие, меньше растений микроорганизмов и тд растет среди посаженных деревьев (вначале видео лес, который выращен человеком)

@@verdiit спасибо большое!)

There is little or limited biodiversity in 2nd growth forests as there are no mature or ancient trees, and there is usually one species of tree that’s been planted or left to grow naturally. That’s the issue. And it is an issue as you said.

@@jackstone4291 I suggest it's an exageration to say there is little biodiversity in 2nd growth forests. There is less than in an old growth- but it's different, with different species of plants and animals. The 2nd growth will have early succession species of trees and animals that prefer that early succession type of forest. It's also incorrect that there will be one species- perhaps in some planted forests but for most of this planet, the forests regrow on their own with many species. Here in New England- if you clearcut an old growth forest- which itself may have had few species- you may see poplar, several species of birch, several species of pine, spruce, black and pin cherry, many species of shrubs and abundant wildflowers and ferns. Also, in early succession types of forests you will see bird species not found in old growth. I am not dismissing the need for old growth. I have found several small patches of old growth which I have shown to old growth experts. I like old growth forests- and I have traveled to many national parks in America to view landscapes in relatively original condition. But I have been a forester for 50 years and I know that it's all too easy to think managed forests are sterile monocultures. There is some of that on this planet but not all that much. And even they aren't all that sterile.
