It is mind -boggling, to say the least. First everybody laughed at The Great Mandarin's utterances. Then came a stupefied silence, as it dawned on all of us that he is actually not joking or speaking figuratively.

I agree partly. But I also think the US has been in decline for quote some time. Life expectancy at the same level as cuba, serious handicaps in education, long-term irresponsible finances both by government, companies and people, looming climate risks spell dire times for the world's breadbasket.

I am starting to think that in nature, more diversity is always better. Things balance out. Excesses get corrected. Every little nugget of waste benefits somebody.

After I learned about this, life has never been the same. Walking among trees now feels like a journey to a fairytale enchanted forest.

Mother trees are the oldest and largest trees in the forest and support younger, more shaded trees and sick trees until they manage on their own. They send defence signals to younger trees about diseases or insects. Mother trees are also able to distinguish their own offspring.

Trees release pheromones when insects attack. Nearby trees notice the pheromones and release their own pheromones that repel insects. Or trees produce tannins to make their leaves bitter to eat. Other trees sense that and start also producing them to save their foliage!

Some young trees growing in dark parts of a forest are too small to compete with taller trees for sunlight. The older trees give them sugars through the mycorrhizal network, until they grow taller and are able to perform photosynthesis themselves.

Underground, fungi grow around their roots. The fungi give water and nutrients to the trees and get sugars in return. The fungi wrap themselves around the tree roots and function as a messanger network between trees.
