However, events are occurring within Point Reyes that threaten the lives of the Tule elk-people. Park authorities are allowing several cattle-people ranches and factory farms to operate within the Park, and one-third of the Park’s land has been set aside for Planeta pământ: casa noastră dragă2021-12-27 1343 vizionări17396p720p720pHQ1080p2021-12-27Planeta pământ: casa noastră dragă The Intelligence and Spirituality of Plants and Trees, Part 2 of 211:34The Intelligence and Spirituality of Plants and Trees, Part 2 of 2Did you know that trees are connected by a complex hidden underground network? The trees’ root systems, called mycorrhizal networks, act as neural networks that transmit messages. The fine, hair-like root tips of trees connect together with microscopic fungal filaments to form the basic links of the network. Our Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai has this message to share with us about trees. “Some Planeta pământ: casa noastră dragă2021-12-20 1313 vizionări34396p720p720pHQ1080p2021-12-20Planeta pământ: casa noastră dragă The Intelligence and Spirituality of Trees and Plants, Part 1 of 213:06The Intelligence and Spirituality of Trees and Plants, Part 1 of 2While walking in a garden or forest can you feel the positive energy in your surroundings?

Many might say it comes from trees but the fact is that most of the atmosphere’s oxygen is produced by marine plants. According to the United States National Park Services, ocean plants provide about 70 to 80 percent of the oxygen on Earth, making them extremely important in climate change mitigation.
