Ep.29 - The future of the woods (and our own)
from Black Box - English version · host Guido Brera - Chora Media
Humans have being changing the landscape and balance of the Alps for over a century. The ecosystem was compromised after the devastation of the First World War and its reconstruction based on a monoculture of European spruce trees. One hundred years later, extreme weather events caused by climate change and the infestation of the so-called “spruce-bark beetle” have forced us to measure the ruinous effects of an economic model that has cancelled out biodiversity in the woodlands and opened up the mountain to hundreds of dangers.
