Some trees can count. They track light, temperature, and moisture patterns over years to predict when to bloom or seed. It’s nature’s built-in calendar.
How does your internal clock sync with nature’s?

Forests don’t just rely on rain—they make it. Trees release moisture into the air, influencing cloud formation and even rainfall patterns miles away.
Magic or microclimate? You decide. ☁️🌿
Old-growth trees are the backbone of forest communication. Through underground fungi, they send resources to younger trees—even ones of different species.
Have you ever learned something from an elder tree? 🌳
Forests are being mapped in real time with drones and machine learning.
From tracking deforestation to identifying rare species, tech is helping ecologists protect what matters.
Code really can save trees. 🌳🛰️

Fire isn’t always the villain. Some trees, like the giant sequoia, need fire to thrive. But climate change is throwing the cycle out of balance.
Let’s talk about the role of fire in forest health. 🔥🌲

Did you know trees can help each other survive?
When one tree is under attack by insects, it can send distress signals through underground fungi to warn neighbors. It’s like a forest-wide group chat. 🌲📡

What’s the link between coding and trees?
Systems thinking! Whether it’s loops in code or cycles in an ecosystem, teaching kids to code also teaches them to think ecologically. 🌿💻
What’s one way you’ve seen tech help nature?

Forest communication isn't fantasy
Turns out it’s not—trees do share water, nutrients, and chemical signals underground. Scientists call these “common mycorrhizal networks.”

@NASA satellites help track forest health, illegal logging, and fire risk. AI then analyzes the data to predict where help is needed most.
Digital dryads, anyone?
