Summary:
A journey into the heart of America's most iconic forests, Giants Rising explores the secrets, superpowers and saga of the redwoods — the tallest and some of the oldest living beings on Earth. It's an epic tale that reveals the wonders of these majestic trees and our dramatic, ever-evolving relationship with them. Living links to the past, redwoods also hold powers that may play a role in our future, including their ability to withstand fire and capture carbon, to offer clues about resilience, and even to enhance our own well-being. Through the voices of biologists, artists, Native communities and others, we discover the redwoods' scientific marvels and our deep cultural ties to them. It's a story that offers insights about the value of our interconnections, and the promise of solutions that will help us ALL rise up to face the challenges that lay ahead.
