Arbres et forêts sont aujourd’hui menacés, alors qu’ils pourraient devenir nos meilleurs alliés. Un nouveau regard sur la nature, selon une démarche scientifique, permet de lever le voile des apparences et de révéler des particularités insoupçonnées des arbres. Des savoirs traditionnels apparaissent alors parfois biologiquement visionnaires – tandis que, par ailleurs, la science découvre des phénomènes dont même la tradition n’avait pas idée. Ce livre brosse un panorama dans lequel le visible et l’invisible s’entrecroisent. Il y est question des peuples de l’arbre, du secret de la longévité des arbres, du nombre d’or, d’eau “nouvelle”, de marées dans les fûts et de pouls cosmique des bourgeons, de messages subtils des arbres, aujourd’hui mesurables, tels les signes avant-coureurs de tremblements de terre, et de bien d’autres choses encore : qu’est-ce que le “bois de lune” ? Que nous révèle un “électrodendrogramme” ? Comment une maison en bois, un feu de bois ou tout simplement l’air de la forêt agissent-ils sur notre santé ? Pourquoi les arbres et les forêts ont-ils été des sources de fertilité pour l’agriculture et comment peuvent-ils le redevenir – et par là même agir contre l’effet de serre ? Sous de multiples aspects, les arbres peuvent nous enrichir et nous inspirer, pour autant que nous les intégrions dans nos actions. Très concrètement, ils constituent un moyen non seulement d’atténuation, mais aussi de résolution de la catastrophe climatique en cours. Et, bien plus que nous ne l’imaginons, ils peuvent aider à régénérer les hommes et à faire reverdir la Terre.

Biodiversity is decreasing at the fastest rate in the history of the earth, largely as a result of human activity. The sustainable use of ecosystems allowing maintenance of biological diversity is an urgent problem that must be solved. Among terrestrial ecosystems, forests support the richest biological diversity. The interaction of humans and forests has a long history, but recent changes have been the most drastic ever. The rapid decrease and deterioration of forest ecosystems has been caused by social, economic, and ecological factors, which may vary locally but are common globally. The mechanisms causing biodiversity loss through forest utilization and the results of that loss of biodiversity are still virtually unknown, although such knowledge is crucial to developing sustainable management strategies. The work featured in this book presents the results achieved by the RIHN project, together with reports on other international activities and related efforts, as ecologists, forestry scientists, environmental economists, and sociologists share in discussions of the issues.
