The episode examines the crucial role forests play in regulating our planet’s climate and preserving biodiversity. With species extinction and climate change looming large, scientists are racing to understand the complex interplay within these vital ecosystems. Can the secrets held within these forests provide solutions to some of our planet’s most pressing problems?
