    I am going to engineering school and one of my life goals is to invent a material that is strong enough, rigid enough, and safe enough to be used as a permanent replacement for wood, so that I can forever help preserve the natural beauty of trees. I love plants, I love trees, and I love mother earth

      They already have, problem is cost way more, fortunately for us earth provides endless amount of trees to offset that cost, and we (humans) unlike termites and woodpeckers are wise enough to replant them, paper, pencils etc use wood, it's called life!!!!go take politics and learn to unify and bond Americans will be a first!!

Kids have been climbing in the tree since the days of Daniel Boone. The biggest I believe is in Cyprus. The thing that keeps the Harrodsburg tree #2 is that it's got a split trunk. Spots are polished from being climbed in. Cool spot yall.

    Nature truly is absolutely amazing, I can see why Native Americans hold nature so dear and close to their hearts and their spiritual beliefs. If you just stand in the presence of these monolithic structures, you can almost feel the energy, the life, and the spirit of nature. That might sound corny to some people, but not to me. I’m as white as they come, born and raised in Toronto my entire life, of English and Irish background, but I swear to God, somehow there’s a part of me that is Native American, because I share so much of their beliefs regarding nature, and the deep respect that they hold for it. Many years ago, I was travelling around British Columbia, and across Vancouver Island, and to see an entire mountain side completely wiped clean of every single tree that was there, literally had me in tears. I can’t explain it, but the emotional response I felt was absolutely overwhelming, as if something or somebody that I love dearly, died. I understand that humanity needs materials, but with today’s modern techniques of construction, it’s no longer necessary to destroy such beauty all over the world. When will humanity learn that this isn’t just a hunk of wood, these living beings are the very lifeblood of the planet, and without them we would all be dead, and that’s a fact. They’re already destroying the Amazon, that are literally the lungs of the planet, as they absorbs CO2, and give us oxygen to breathe. By killing nature, we are killing ourselves. It’s way past time that we woke up to that realization, to learn to respect nature, to learn that it’s not there for us to do with as we please, it’s there to keep us alive, to sustain us, to feed us, and to give us life. It’s so ironic that for centuries we’ve been killing the one thing that’s been keeping us alive, I only pray to God that one day all the worlds Governments finally clue into that fact, and adopt all the new methods of creating construction materials, and hydroponic food growth, so that we don’t have to destroy nature, but instead, live in harmony, peace, and respect with it. Please tell me that I’m not the only one who feels this way, because for me nature is life. I suffer from extreme depression and anxiety, due to many health problems including cancer, and whenever the world becomes so dark that I can’t stand it, I need only walk through the forest not far from my home, and I am instantly renewed back to full vigour and life. It’s impossible to put into words, but it truly inspires me, it lifts my spirits, and for the briefest of moments makes me feel alive again, so please, I beg all of you, have a little more respect for nature, because you have no idea just how much it does for us, thank you.

      "With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

    There are old logging mill records in Australia showing giant trees that were brought in to be milled piece by piece by bullock team.
    One Red Cedar I’ve read about was 130 yards long when the pieces were added together. Keep in kind, that back then they crowned the tree out in situ (the crown usually represents about 30+% of tree height) and due to buttressing at the base, they’d have to climb 15-20 yards up on the bigger trees in order to fell it. So this particular tree was pushing 200 yards long all up. The Sydney harbour bridge is 134m (146.5 yards) tall from top of arch to water for comparison. It’s incredible what we had and most of it was cut down with axes before chainsaws were even invented. There’s local photos around of bullock teams pulling logs in the early 1900’s and the logs diameter is equal to thus...the bullock team driver, on horseback, stock whip raised and ready to crack being level with top of log. Easily 20+ ft diameter. At most 2% of the main forest in my area survived (Big Scrub Rainforest, NSW). Such a pity as most was simply burnt to make way for beef/dairy cattle. What was milled is 99.9% gone. Lost to the ravages of time and progress.

    I would have thought the Sitka Spruce trees would have at least been mentioned in passing.

    There is a tree just outside of Warburton, Victoria, Australia called the Ada tree.

The base of the trunk is absolutely massive. Worth a look at.

      @tenbytenhousefreebutnoteno9095 Před 6 měsíci

      We are currently working on a new system post 2020, but ask you be patient a few years to this gets implemented. This will include....
      A new 4 hour workweek without land or housing cost. This will include Electric, Water, Internet, Some TV, and 20$ worth of food a week. Electric and Water will still be monitored for ridiculous over usage. If someone in the household fails to meet the 4 hours in a single week 6 charity hours will be deducted. These hours will be tracked yearly, and can also be completed ahead of schedule. For instance you may do fifty-two 4 hour shifts, or twenty-six 8 hour shifts, and be finished for a year. You may also get ahead of schedule and finish years ahead.
      All other items you wish to buy will be purchased with additional charity hours. All products can only be purchased through shipping outside of Grocery stores, Home improvement stores, Hospitals, and Pet shops. Shipping to your address will only be implemented 12 times a year per house, and will be traded for 4 hours of charity per person living in your household. 24 deliveries a year can be earned for 12 charity hours or more per person. More details to come.
      Bus passes will be passed out, on a 6th month bases for those contributing towards four hours of bus driving and/or other charity every 6 months.
      There is also plan in the works to implement 1 car per every 12 households. This plan will include pick ups/drop offs only to Bus stops, Grocery stores, Home improvement stores, Hospitals, and Pet shops. The rest will have to include bus passes or other means.
      Houses, including stationary households (example boats/trees) may be traded seasonally/yearly/permanently, for additional charity hours as moving people or other charities. However this will require both parties to sign a trade back/no trade back agreement. The amount of charity hours, and other details regarding this topic are still being written.
      You may freely pass this information on, but we ask the following....
      #1. please do not discuss this politically or during news. As this is a slow plan in the works. All I can say is this has always been the plan, but some are trying to state and change the details otherwise.
      #2. Please advertise this scientifically and including all people. If you include religion, we ask you share it as a "neighborly messenger" or neutral party.
      #3. Lastly, please when discussing this DO NOT make it personal. We are just messengers. If anyone responds tell them you are just sharing what was given. If they continue to harass, just tell them someone shared this information with you. If they challenge you verbally, and insult you just continue to tell them this is the information we are working on over and over, until they are silent and/or they are no longer around you.
      Thank you!!!
      Peace, and Love.

    I'm surprised you didn't include the redwood cypress trees in Washington State. One so big they put a road through its trunk. Got to go visit this national park back in 2010. It was an amazing sight to behold. Completely protected from any deforestation. The only clearing that is allowed is to clear any fallen trees during rot or wind. If anyone is caught cutting down, any standing tree is hit with a hefty fine and prison time because it's a federal crime if caught cutting down any part of the protected trees for any reason.

  • @ianlowery6014
    @ianlowery6014 Před 3 lety +37

    The Mountain Ash from Australia's south east is the second highest at present, and the tallest flowering plant. Historically it was the tallest. In 1871 a fallen tree was measured with a surveyor's tape by the inspector of State Forests in Victoria, and came in at a massive 132.6 metres (435 feet).
    There is a limit to how high trees can grow. Water travels up the cambian layer just beneath the bark, by capillary action. This is limited to about 135 metres. Above that height the leaves can't get water.

    • @ET-cj8jo
      @ET-cj8jo Před rokem +2

      The word is cambium and that is a growth layer, not a water transmission layer. The plant height limit is defined by the cohesiveness of water. As a liquid pure water has high tensile and compression strength, but this is altered by mineral content. The water column in the xylem vessels literally takes on one water molecule from the roots as one molecule is released by transevaporation in the leaves, so not capillary action which is a phenomenon related to water/air interface. However, there is a physical limit to the tensile strength of the xylem water, which limits the absolute height of trees. Note that gymnosperms such as the tall sequoia in north America do not have xylem vessels, only xylem tracheids, which are narrower and may assist in maintaining the continuity of the water column more than the wider vessels. You might wonder that living cells should be able to pump water higher, but the plain fact is that xylem vessels and tracheids are actually dead cells that from long tubes; plants did not evolve a system for pumping water higher, and many plants do not reach anywhere near 100m. Height is an evolutionary advantage only in forests, and Eucalyptus for example has evolved other means to reduce competition for light, such as preventing growth of other plants nearby through their root systems. This is why eucalypts as agricultural windbreaks failed, because crops could not grow anywhere near the trees due to inhibition.
      The author of the video does not mention the giant karri trees in south Western Australia, which are almost as tall and very massive.

Some better for medicinal(high THC), some better for industrial(close to zero THC). You would also know the reasons why the plant was made illegal. It wasn't because of it's THC. However, all that being said.. How do you figure most countries protect their old growth forests? Where did you see that in the video? Do you know what is going on in South America? In Malaysia? Indonesia? Africa? You said it yourself with your reference to mass farming as an ecological disaster. Mining for steel and clearing land for farm is certainly an issue, but if it is done properly, there is no reason it can't be done sustainably. What is going on in these countries.. The industrial scale clearfelling of tropical rainforests(earths critical biosystems) for palm oil, beef and soybeans.. It will be the end of us.

      I think the channel was looking for the tallest trees. General Sherman isn't the *tallest* tree (about 270ft {82.3 metres}) but it is the most *massive* tree in the world with a diameter of about 40ft {12.4 metres} at its base.

I found it interesting that when we were entering the subway system they had what were called pushers,,,their joyb We also rode was to keep the flow of people moving and they just might shove you on your rear to speed things along...they wore while gloves!! Also spent some time in Kyoto a very, very old town that was beautiful...Quite a trip...

    I live in an area that was once covered with giant Douglas fir trees. Unfortunately, they were almost all cut down for lumber. The second growth trees in the woods near my home are pretty big, but nothing compared to what is hinted at by the remnant stumps. It's sad that no attempt was made to preserve at least some of those giant trees.

      There's evidence of trees much much bigger than the biggest we've found. Like the giant flat top mound in Wyoming... Looks exactly like a tree cut down yet it's like 3 or 400 meters wide. It's not the only one. I think back when life was much much bigger, not sure what era that was but dinosaurs, bugs, plants, etc.. were MASSIVE. bears and lions 4 times the current size.. so why not trees? I think they were either killed and burnt up by the cataclysm or cut down and covered up by govt. There's pictures of 60 to 100 dudes standing on stumps of cut down Giants. Pictures from way back when photography was new. There's more to this tree thing then we know

      the saddest part is they didn't NEED the biggest trees...they could have gotten by fine with taking trees that would have been easier to cut and haul and still be large enough to make any board or product that would have been needed at the time. Leaving the oldest and most robust growth to reproduce and regrow stronger healthier undergrowth...but yeah...cut it all....need that wealth...

    Hi, I'm from India and I think Kabirvad should be in this list. It's a Banyan tree. According to Wikipedia The tree's canopy was so extensive it sheltered 7000 men. It was later described by James Forbes (1749-1819) in his Oriental Memoirs (1813-1815) as nearly 610 m (2,000 ft) in circumference with over 3000 trunks.[5] Currently the area of its canopy is 17,520 m2 (4.33 acres) with a perimeter of 641 m (2,103 ft). Just check it out please. I had visited that few times.

      They may have the biggest canopy, but.
      At only about 15 meters high, with hundreds of skinny aerial roots/trunks,
      they are pretty small and unimpressive, and would be rated at the absolute opposite end of the scale when rating The Biggest Trees. It's timber not sufficient
      for milling, it's a epiphyte, which attaches itself to existing trees, plants and strangles them to death whilst moving on to its next victim, (a parasite)
      Nothing mighty about a tree that can't, even physically support itself.
      That's all from the same Wikipedia page you referred to.

    Last year I was camping at Seeley Lake in Montana. When I came across an extraordinary find. A Larch Tree which is one of the largest I've ever seen. Come to find out Big Gus as it's known.
    Is believed to be the largest Larch tree in the world at the moment. At 163 feet plus 10 ft dead top. Which has a circumference of 273 inches.
    That's massive for a larch tree here. When I inquired about it's age if known. Was amazed to find out it's believed to be over a thousand years old.
    To think this tree was around before Christopher Columbus discovered America.
    Around the time of the Mayan Chechen Itza Empire blows my mind. 🤯
    There wasn't another dominant power in Yucatan until the 12th century. These trees are the planets time capsules here!!
    Also recommend a trip to Glacier National Park also in Montana. Which has cidar trees dating back to the last ice age. I was never much of a conservationist until I saw these magnificent places. They need to be protected at all costs here. :)
