Travel the world to observe how a multitude of cultures have formed enduring bonds with trees, believing them imbued of a “life force.” Some are “cosmic,” “home to the gods,” symbolize ancestral roots, or represent fertility. Trees in the forest are also believed to hold apart the earth and sky, so light can come in. Your commitment to their preservation will deepen and grow. Forests are the dominant terrestrial ecosystem of Earth, and are distributed across the globe. Forests account for 75% of the gross primary productivity of the Earth's biosphere, and contain 80% of the Earth's plant biomass. The first known forests on Earth arose in the Late Devonian (approximately 380 million years ago), with the evolution of Archaeopteris. Archaeopteris was a plant that was both tree-like and fern-like, growing to 10 metres (33 ft) in height. Archaeopteris quickly spread throughout the world, from the equator to subpolar latitudes. Archaeopteris formed the first forest by being the first known species to cast shade due to its fronds and forming soil from its roots. Archaeopteris was deciduous, dropping its fronds onto the forest floor. The shade, soil, and forest duff from the dropped fronds created the first forest. The shed organic matter altered the freshwater environment, slowing it down and providing food, which promotes freshwater fish. 6 of these ancient (oldest, biggest, largest) majestic forests are represented in this video; 1: The Amazone Rainforest - South America 2: Baobab Forest - Madagascar, Australia, Africa 3: Tarkine Rainforest - Australia 4: Giant Forest of Sequoia National Park - California, United States 5: Bialowieza Forest - Poland, Belarus 6: Yakushima Forest - Japan I cannot guarantee the accurateness of the information provided, as all information is collected from various sources. Changes are most numbers are estimated guesses, in reality the sizes of the forest are probably bigger, presuming our world map isn't completely accurate. So are the areas of Brazil, Africa and Australia, the southern continents, in truth probably larger then our world-maps show. Protecting these ancient earth's wonders must be prime directive.
