🌳 Comment to rewild 1 additional square meter of forest
🌱 Join us to rewild the planet: planetwild.com/join/m12
Human activity has turned most of Scotland's beautiful and ancient forests into monoculture plantations. This pushes endless animals and species out of their natural habitat, drastically reducing biodiversity.
That’s why in our twelfth Planet Wild mission, we’re transforming monoculture plantations into real forests, using an unusual reforestation technique. Spoiler alert: not a single tree was planted.
A special thanks to scotlandbigpicture.com for providing us with additional footage.

A big storm knocked trees down and the floor exploded with life. Decades later you can't even tell that it was a plantation. I witnessed this transformation over 50 years. Few people even believed my story. Glad to see you speeding it up. That's my meter!!

I also am from the Pacific NW. Oregon has been my home my entire life. Love our diversity in our national and private forests. Not so fond of the plantation style forests. They create dense places for fires to spread. Natural forests allow fire to burn through and just chare the forest floor leaving the trees to continue to flourish.

I'm an ecologist who lives in one of the greenest but most manicured places (Singapore). Even when I was a child primary forest felt different to the manicured landscapes I grew up in but I could not put words to it and it seemed like others could not see the difference. Almost 40 years now later it is refreshing and validating to find a similar outlook. Looking at the initial shots of the plantation the first thing that popped into my mind was that something like a controlled forest fire is what's needed. How do I link up with you guys and do the kind of ecology that you do?

Then an old lady appeared and asked us if we could notify the municipal service for greenery to come and restore the lawn to its previous state. She obviously preferred a dead, dull, green carpet.

There is a compromise that can be done, though it requires a tiny bit more work - surrounding a wild patch of growth with lawn-like grass that gets cut. This way the people's desire for orderly, clean-cut image is maintained but it leaves space for nature and it teaches everyone we can share.

@@huskytail The latest trend here in Greece is to make gardens or green spaces based either on native plants, or well adopted species. So we see a mixture of origano, rosemary, thyme, lavender, olive trees, cypress, aloe, agave, fig trees etc and other species that attract bees and butterflies with enough space among them to let all these herbs and weeds to grow freely. We see that mostly on gardens created in office buildings etc and less in municipal gardens. At least it's a start.

I know Mossy Earth is a doing a project very similar to this in Scotland where they’re removing non-native trees to let the forest naturally regenerate. I’m happy seeing other organizations trying to rewild the planet. Thank you for what you, the members and the organization are doing.

@@arkilos2253 that’s true, but the loss of habitat’s are a major concern for nature and her inhabitants since the people have been taking it over and driving them out and leaving them with smaller areas that are unable to support them. It’s a shame that those millions of acres are almost totally destroyed and not able to support the life that once lived there.

@@Ghost-Mama Go back 500 years and it wasn't a forest. People need to be better versed in the natural history of a place before assuming what would be good for it. A lot of Southern California was Oak Savannah and grassland. Our native grasses and plants have been massively displaced and this tree-planting narrative isn't helping us one bit. Trees are but a small part of a very big picture as it is the herbaceous layer that is in the greatest need of recovery. Doing this will in turn help the trees that depend on such open environments to thrive and do well.

Even here in Hampshire on the English South Coast you can suddenly find yourself in a monoculture area of woodland. A few years ago now I was walking through an area of wood that was varied and open, the type I have never felt anything but at home in, and I say this as a city gal... then me and my friends walked a path alongside a tree plantation and I felt anxious. The trees were all the same, planted regimentally with the crowded space below barren and dark, all I could think was to keep walking and gat away from that section of wood. Thank you for all you do and let's hope future generations will see the UK covered in our real landscape not monocultures.

Heya, chalk stream conservationist here. Thanks for supporting projects in the UK. We perform the same thing in river restoration, to restore you often have to destroy. We put trees back into rivers to diversify habitats, flow dynamics and kick-start natural processes. I also feel bad when we use trees, but in my case, they often survive the process and actually thrive from our disturbance. 🌳

There are many unnatural tree plantations in the US too, even in parts of state parks and wildlife reserves let alone regular parks. If the forest you've been to is easy to wall through, that means it's a tree plantation, real forests should have vines and plants and huge shrubs and small understory trees as well as a mixture of big trees.
