"Forest for the Future can help students of all ages understand forest ecology. Picks up where other curricula stops; shows the whole forest in its interconnections, rather than a series of single species and their habitat needs."
- Beverly Isenson, Governor's Council on Environmental Education, Washington
"***Three stars. Recommended."
- Video Librarian
Vol. 2 only available on series DVD, please see Forests for the Future Series for more information.
Video 2 looks at the historic and ongoing impact of human activities on old-growth forests. We learn what happens as large sections of forest are logged and how a replanted area, or "tree farm," differs biologically from an ancient forest ecosystem. Alternative managed harvesting is explained.
