We are barreling into the anthropocene, the sixth mass extinction in the history of the planet. Efforts to protect species are ramping up as governments, scientists and nonprofit organizations like Archangel Ancient Tree Archive try to build a modern version of Noah’s Ark.
In a partnership with The Eden Project in Cornwall, United Kingdom, 300 Champion Trees will be planted in a Super Grove of Champion Coast redwoods and Giant Sequoias.
David Milarch will appear on EmeraldPlanet, a television program with a mission to identify and share 1,000 best practices through the globally broadcast The EmeraldPlanet TV. The episode, entitled Triangle of Life: Champion Trees; Water; and Carbon Sequestration is being broadcast live on Sunday, March 4, 2014.
Archangel co-founder David Milarch will be the keynote speaker at the 2014 Great Lakes Renewable Energy Association’s Michigan Energy Fair.
Part of the mission of Archangel Ancient Tree Archive is to clone iconic trees to ensure their preservation. The Central Park Beech tree famously planted in New York City by Central Park architect Frederick Law Olmstead and cloned in 2008 with assistance of David Milarch, then of Champion Tree Project International, will be replanted in all five boroughs of New York City.
