*_“A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.”_*
@Tony Marselle i want to know
no, it's the greek
"A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in. This proverb is from the Greece. One of the oldest civilizations in the world is Greek civilization".
*got from google
when you live for things that are not yet alive, you will know what i means to have lived. And because of this, you can die without regret.
Yess ,dear I am planting trees on that side of a road ,which is in the last and no one goes there and I am not old,, m in my middle age ,but there are some people who do not like it ,and many a times they put harmful chemicals in the roots of that tree ,I again plant ,they again do the same ,,now I am planning to put cctv cameras there ,but you know doing right kind of things is very tough

That deep baritone voice, is the voice of a redwood itself!
bass
hes the lorax
Unfortunately all that power, was not enough to ward off the rapaciousness of our measly culture that only values things when they are gone or almost gone.
An old legend!!
bob ross of redwood
I've planted over a 100,000 trees in my life since I was a kid. There is nothing more rewarding to see the growth after 30 years. It goes from how you remember the land to a completely new landscape. Almost bitter sweet because you know how long it takes for those trees to grow that big.
Just do it @@wot.no.eulogy
Would it be possible to send some seeds to Ukraine?
Over here in NZ there is a town called Rotorua that planted California Redwood tree in 1901, 1920 and 1940. They are truly magnificent, the beauty of the trees as u walk through the forest is breath taking. Standing tall and strong, they give new meaning to the word at one with nature
his voice is amazing. they didn't even need to hire a narrator

Maybe he found the meaning of living.
Halleluyah!

@@seasirenwestwood9275 What is the "Meaning of life"?
The chronology looks bad.
THIS is the type of content National Geographic should be more producing!!
First time I saw the redwoods I started to cry they’re magical living beings
Yes amazing isn't it ☺️
Planted over 40 Redwoods in Oroville California in the Sierra Nevada foothills at 950 ft elevation. They were around 4 ft tall 25 years ago and are now 100 ft tall. they need a little tlc to get started but once they are established they grow rapidly. I lived in Crescent City CA for 15 years and the redwoods are my favorite part of that area. Glad to see other people who care about the trees.
Good work!
Love you. Thank you.
where do you live in oroville, i'd like to see it
Now thier ash
Someone actually doing something and not just talking about it. That's awesome, you should make a video of your trees!
"There is no wifi in the forest, but i'll promise you that you will find a better connection"

There was wifi in ancient times?
We Try - Lord help you!
This was awesome, I grew one from a seedling and now it’s the tallest tree in the mountains and thriving at 3000 ft elevation
I highly recommend making a journey to see those forests. Its that feeling when you were a kid, and every day your mind was blown away with something new to know. That's how it feels putting your eyes and hands on these giants.
CH MA 4, I agree, growing up watching "The Wonderful World of Disney" is when I first saw that redwood a car could drive through. It was etched in my memory.
So when my wife asked me where I wanted to go on vacation it was easy.
We journeyed to Kings Canyon, what a treat.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realize we cannot eat money. ~Cree
Gavin Dowding wow wise and true words
Gavin Dowding - Couldnt agree more. Well said.
Agree.
♥️🙏💝
Well we can't eat trees either.
we need more people like this
#theloraxisreal
Go help
We don't need people like this, we MUST BE people like this.
Lots of people who work on forestry plant tree seedlings for living, me including. Its not just cutting down trees all the time.
Was about to write exactly that :-)
I'm crying watching this. Amazing to find people with such passion doing great things for the world that's got long term benefits.
A big salute to you.....sir. Thank you for reviving mother nature.
In my late 80's now, but a visit to the Redwoods had a profound influence on my life in ways of no word
Videos like this one should be one of the most popular on TH-cam... when it happens, we know that our planet is in good hands.
Those who have walked among those giants will never forget. It feels like walking through a cathedral.
I disagree, i prefer the road paved with good intentions.
Trees from cutting don't flower.
I only have 4 things on my bucket list, and seeing the Giant Redwoods in one of them.
(I'm in the eastern US, it'll be a bit ...)
Us the same as all the other creatures in their forest realm ?
My youngest son and his wife walked and rode through the redwoods and complained about how boring it was!
I worked in those forests for three weeks and my brain was definitely changed in a good way. Its a profound place. 95% of the trees were killed, true and 95% of the native people who originally cared for the trees were also killed. I do hope that they have included the native nations of the area to advise and to return some of the land to them.
You are In LA LA LAND!!!
@@scottcarter7886 she definitely is those people are long gone
I agree with you. It’s not a fantasy after all everything that has ever changed the world was considered to be impossible. I’m with you that they should let the people who care about this land teach people how to care
This is happening further north with the Klamath tribes. Your thinking is on point.
Can’t agree more.
40 years ago my dad took his parents, wife and kids to California to see relatives in a once in a lifetime type trip. Being 12 at the time,I wanted to go to Disney most of all. We spent a week visiting family and parks followed by a week doing Disney type things. Decades later what I remember and appreciate most is the Redwoods. Massive and majestic and HUGE! It saddens me greatly to hear decades later these forests are mostly gone. Massive respect to those who are doing something to save this most precious of natural resources. Living creatures over 2000 years old deserved better.
they still live, just hope, or do stuff, i planted a coast redwood, its so amazing and grows fast(2 feet per year)
Plant metasequoia which grows in the East coast states!
Not all heroes wear capes.
Bubble tree?
nice.
Alexander Rain None of the real hero's wear capes
True
they dont wear badges either!
i dont even know what to say about the vintage clip. the narrator speaking with such glee about how ancient the trees are while we watch them being cut down. a society with no respect for age has no history.
People from America think 100 years is a long time, while people from Europe think 100 miles is a long distance.
Hindsight is 20/20.
@@shawnmoran3606 160 km is quite the distance, also those are trees older than the tale of jesus christ
Let's make sure that glee has died with that era, and rid and heal the land of such destructive profit motives this time around...
Yeah, that just made me shake my head. Sad and shameful.
I don't know about you guys, but really, I cried. I cried for this. I cried for trees. God bless you, Sir.
I deal with all types of wood. At first I was just selling firewood for profit. Now I feel I need to plant as much as I cut. My mission is to create my own forest. “The Paul Bunyon Forest.” I know these now dead trees that I deal with were growing before I was alive. Now it’s time I help them as much as they helped me.
good luck
I've planted many trees. I lick the seeds before I plant them so that my DNA becomes one with the trees.🌳

The video gave chills of amazement at God
It’s been many years since I visited the Redwoods in Northern California. My heart hurt seeing those high trees cut down & I am grateful for people like you who clone & replant trying to bring them back.
This was posted 5 years ago & California has almost been burned out. The fires have taken a toll on several states. I hope you are still cloning & planting these beautiful trees!
This is proof that God still had plans for you. Bless you 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
This might be the best TH-cam video I’ve ever watched. As a great lover of redwoods, I was very much warmed by this man’s project.
We are blessed to have someone like this in our world, and it needs our support.
Yeah... He really need💮💖... One can't handle thousands of fools in the world /planet Earth
On behalf of my grandchildren and their children ....thank u
U are optimistic.
assuming ull have children
and some corporation who cut down all his trees in 100-150 years
I love that opening statement. Having grown up in Northern California, I feel the same. The old growth redwoods are such magical trees and had a profound spiritual impact on me the many times I walked through those beautiful enchanting groves.
Awesome! Extremely Happy to see! My best friend and I were just talking about this... When I was a young boy of 7 yrs old I saw these beautiful giants for the first time... From Ventura, California. It made me cry! I am now 61 yrs old.
If you teach kids that trees are the most important thing, then they'll do anything to protect them.
If you teach kids that money is the most important thing, then they'll do anything to get it.
money is more important than tress. If your job paid you in tree seeds it would be worthless. Fuck the tress give me money any day!
wolf in the wild doesn't matter bitch! I'm Rich!
wolf in the wild the meaning of life is to get money. If you haven't figured that out you truly are a idiot.

That made me cry. Did anyone else?
No ! But i felt moved and understood how he felt, because here where i live in Western Australia we have a ever shrinking Forrest losing to big companies and our unique Forrest's are disappearing very fast. These trees and old growth and are some of the largest trees in the world.
@@NathanChisholm041... sounds like we felt the same watching it, I just cried. It's a shame not all people can see the longterm effects it causes.
@@MissJudyJetson I love forests and nature in general. i've been watching lots of videos of people bring life back to dead land by replanting vast areas. there's hope yet! Cheers
@UCoM716TSAFNezfoL-lAEpjQ Some good points and i'm a volunteer with various programs over here in Western Australia replanting native bushes and trees! I wish more people would get involved it would make a world off difference!
Yes, it is such a shame. I'm happy I'm not the only one to feel that way.

It's just nice to see that somebody's doing something about it we need those trees. And thank you

I'm going to do whatever I can to pick up the trash others left behind.
I'm going to pick up my own trash,
and I'm going to do whatever I can to replant all trees that are being cut down.
I'm inspired by this video and many others,
and as a drummer I can safely say that everyone can do something.
If you don't ought to join me in making the planet a better place, I'm going to take as many for the team as I have to.
I'm not going to just sit here and watch the world go.
Good things are happening, we just need to see them.

@@dmomcilovic9185 There are many trees that a table can be made from. Many that grow fast and are not thousands of years old. Its mostly greed. I own a lot of land and none of it will ever be clear cut, never and I plan to keep it that way.

When he said "It's my life's worth" I felt that.
some of you may laugh, but it is ok, whenever i see a giant tree cut down, it makes me cry
same here....
No, I feel the same way 💚
You're just a fruity boy, Stan. You don't need to laugh or cry, you just need to do something about it.
If they laugh they lack basic human dignity.
CaliforniaCarpenter7 wow. There’s nothing fruity about tears. It’s that you feel it more deeply than most other folks. Fruity? Ugh!
Who cares!!! Stop deciding what someone is based on the fact that they feel it when a huge ancient life form is destroyed just for being in the way.
Not a treehigher myself but I admire this guy and wish I had the time to visit a redwood forest.
Pictures and videos don't do the trees any justice at all. It's a truly breath-taking experience to see a giant redwood in real life and just admiring how massive and beautiful they are. It's like being in a city of trees, surrounded by bark, leaves, and fresh crisp clean air. Defiantly worth the trip for anyone who decides to go.
"We can grow millions and millions of tress" - That gave me hope
this is what it means to be the change you want to see. One person can make a lot of difference. thank you
Just saw the redwoods for the first time yesterday. This experience has been absolutely life changing. Just some words: amazing, godly, protectors, ancient, strength, resilient, etc. We have to protect and restore the redwood and sequoia trees. I wish only the best and success for this mission.
Old is Gold. Preserving such trees is a great Love to humanity.
The Lorax has gotten a bit taller since the last time I saw him.
@@honestacehole6172 I hope you didn't take a look at a dr seuss book, went: "this has vibrant colors and words that rhyme, this is for 3 year olds" although it is indeed. Sad at the end but it does include morality whether that is concealed inside words like "thneed".

I can't THANK You enough for you saving the TREES i love you guys THANK You
Thank you so much for doing this. You're a beautiful person. I get so sad when I see people cutting down trees and making them into sawdust. I'm in Colorado but grew up in California long ago. I wish we had redwoods here. Thanks again. You're a blessing to this earth.
Every time I day dream or meditate a Redwood forest is always a part of it. Now that truely explains their magical influence on me and I’m sure anyone who has seen a redwood forest in person or in pictures has a sort of magical connection to them in their own way.
I can’t imagine loosing such an amazing part of nature because of human actions. On an emotional and logical level they are very important.
People like these restore my faith in human nature.
First time a tree video made me cry
Why do people get so easily disturbed.. it amazes me.
I get watching a Miley Cyrus video and crying, it's truly sad how trashy humans can become.. but a tree doc. It is sad, but not cry worthy.
Queen Elizabeth II Get off your keyboard, go there and experience them; then you'll get it.
People don't cry only because of sadness. There's many reason why people can cry. Some people are very emotionaly sensitive and can litteraly start crying for nothing. For exemple, personnaly i can cry because i find something incredibly beautiful. I have cried in front of movies that weren't really sad or emotional, just some scenes or some shots were so beautiful it made me cry to think that people can create such things.
There is nothing NOT cry-worthy. You think a cry is sadness, but everybody is different. It can happen out of anything, happiness, disbelief, love, and a lot more. There is no perfect definition. That's just humanity buddy.
Queen Elizabeth II - Oh, Jeez. Now we have the Cry Police? 😡
He is my Hero! I from mold sickness, almost died from renal failure, and I too, swore to save my mother earth if I survived... Long last our trees..
Planting trees.. Like giving hope... What we ought to thrive on is more people like you...
bless you man

God has zero to do with this.. I have a reason to believe he dose it for a deeper meaning.
your sky daddy allowed the trees to be cut down, so praying now will not help
sorry
~"when you live for things that are not yet alive, you will know what i means to have lived. And because of this, you can die without regret." ~
Wow. Nothing but respect for this guy and his family. Thank you for trying to save the world and helping mother nature to make this world a better place for generations to come. 🙏
This guy is an example of how we could help the world every day
There's an old Redwood forest in Minnesota at Itasca State Park. I used to visit it in my teens (1970's). It could maybe help with propogating more of these trees? I remember a friend of mine playing Amazing Grace on his bagpipes at sunset on the lake among those trees. It was so beautiful. I will help this man's cause.
"Let's plant some more".
When I'm alone in the Redwoods, with the mist low to the ground, I can imagine a pre-historic animal running down the trail towards me. It is a magical place that must be experienced at least once in your lifetime.
Nothing but respect and gratitude. Keep doing what you’re doing.
Very disturbing and upsetting to hear them facts .. that only 4% are left. Greed as usual has about killed off our planet.
The planet is fine
REM chan no it isn’t. And let’s say it was okay. The fact that these beautiful trees and plants are going extinct should at least concern you a little. We are never going to be able to go in nature and enjoy these when they go extinct.
@@purebluejapan- it is fine, satellite imagery, actually show an increase in green around the world. Humanity-wise it's inconvenient but it's by no means world ending, a large percentage of the world already live in climate controlled buildings, and generally, to prevent the sea from reclaiming land; it's just a question of cost than anything else. Also, redwoods used to be in Western Europe too, they got out because of the last ice age
@@Ozzyisunavailable The most valuable thing in our entire universe is life to our knowledge, in particular the diversity of live and as far as we know, earth is the only planet with life, even if its not, life is most certainly very scarce in the milky way.
The biggest threat to biodiversity today are we, it started with the Quaternary extinction event, during which our ancestors caused the most extinctions of large animal outside of africa and has rose to an extreme today, through large scale environmental exploitation, poisoning/contamination and extreme habitat loss, which is know even on its way to surpass the Triassic-Jurassic extinction event.
BTW: despite improving technology, we will be the biggest losers of the anthropogenic climate change, the cost we face because of it today are already in the trillions of dollars per year worldwide, while countries like the netherlands can pump up to hundreds of billions each year in protecting their land from getting flooded, or a single city like New York can pay 10 billion for a flooding protection project, most places on this planet can not.
Bangladesh for example is already partly uninhabitable because of the sea level rise and natural disasters(which increase greatly with a more extreme climate), millions of people are climate refugees today and as most of humanity lives close to the costs and most of humanity can not pay billions to protect their city, billions of people will become climate refugees in the next decades.
Even if you live your hyper privileged life, away from the cost, with enough money to pay for very expansive food and outside of a natural disaster zone, you will still be affected because most of humanity will not be so fortunate and when all these people are suffering and starving, while you sit in your safety buble with a full belly, you will not live in peace, that i can guarantee you.
Oscar Healy an increase in algae and farms is not a good increase in green.

rockjockchick I did se it thanks to you, nice recomendation.
I saw the redwoods as a 12 year old back in the mid 1970s. Even at that young age there was a unique feeling of awe just to stand among them. I never forgot it and I never will.
Kudos to this gentleman and all who help him.
Absolutely yes. If you have not walked in a redwood forest you must do so before you can’t anymore. It is an experience you will never forget.
As a previous redwood state park camp host for 13 years, nothing beats living in the redwoods 24/7 during a big storm. They creak and groan and the tops sway 30 feet! Burned out hollow giants are natural when duff builds around trunks for centuries, then is ignited by natural fires. The fibrous bark is relatively fire resistant until enough heat burns through the bark into the cambium and heartwood which burns up the interior until lack of oxygen snuffs it out. Early travelers and pioneers used large hollow redwoods and brush as "Sheep pens" to avoid griz and lion from taking livestock. Many redwoods are blown apart by direct lightening strikes which super-heats interior water into steam. With no tap root, wind can blow over one big redwood and it will take down several others like dominoes.
There are millions of redwoods within state parks and the project of growing the best genetics is good. Those should be widely disbursed among all other protected redwoods to naturally spread the best genetics via eventual seeds. Re-planting clear cut areas only will result in slow and unnatural long term forests since clear cutting killed off the little known "internet" fibers between trees which may take many hundreds of years to restore.
Privately owned redwoods are NOT "protected" and smaller trees left uncut will provide marketable logging again......in 700 years! Why worry? :-) Summer fog (cold ocean-hot interior) is the key element as big redwoods can take in up to 500 gallons of water a day. Redwoods "predict" upcoming winter rain and floods by dropping large numbers of cones, or very few for dry winters. Redwoods have 16 million years of experience. They know what they are doing! :-)
USED LARGE WHAT I MUST KNOW
thanks, thanks and thanks again!
I don't think pioneers worried too much about lions, considering they went extinct in North America some 15,000 years ago.
The USA has tens of thousands of Mt lions NOW.

He probably meant mountain lions which were and still are plentiful in the mid and north west United States.
Some people just can’t comprehend how important these things called “trees” are to our existence
I get rid of my stupid smart phone years ago and got back to nature!
Sadhguru calls them the other half of our lungs.
Like my neighbor, he cut down TWO of them just to make room for wider driveway.
That's why I don't show compassion to other people these days. I learned to smile when I hear news about a landslide on a village or flood. Some people really deserved it after polluting the environment.
Q: Want more rainfall?
A: Plant more trees.
I really need this positivity right now as we have major wildfires in California and the north states. I really hope this cloning of redwoods continues. These trees give me life and happiness.
I am always a tree-hugger. I would love to that someday in Redwood national park. World is extraordinary.
I could listen to this man's voice all day... reminds me of a mixture of Tom Hanks and Morgan Freeman.
Thank you, David. You're an angel. And, thank you National Geographic for allowing this angel to shine.
I guess these angels was asleep when the other 96% were cut down
Thank you uncle for the hopeful spirit. Thank you for saving this forest these trees.
I will remember you. You will be remember for generation.

I️ agree completely with his statement on the act of walking through a redwood forest. I’ve never felt so connected to my spiritual inner being than when I️ was surrounded by those magnificent giants
Well done. That is amazing I saw the trees at 20 I’m now 54 the other side of the country thank you for your efforts
I'M SO TICKLED THAT YOU ARE DOING THIS... I DEEPLY THANK YOU!!!

I have always believed that trees have souls,,there are something special about them and their quiet comfort
They are alive,they must have awareness in some way
You sould see a doctor you could have schizophrenia.
@@neubrain11 You need to define what you mean with awareness for that statement to make sense.

Thank you so much for your wonderful works! You folks are appreciated!
these trees are so amazing! i had the chance to wander amongst them it really puts into perspective how small and short lived we really are. i hope those who are able join him in his mission.
Thanks to David Milarch! 'God bless him!
I’m so thankful for this guy and his family
Thank you for being foresighted. Thank you for hearing the voices of the forest.
I am happy he is alive spreading his message! Tremendous Inspiration!
Amazing! This man has a big HEART! ❤️🌳
I got to know about them when i was a kid! I was amazed by them!!! After so many years knowing that 95% of them are gone breaks my heart!
I have a small backyard, but not too long ago I began taking interest in it. I got into gardening which led me to companion gardening so I won't use pesticides. I began seeing cardinals, chickadees, and just other type of birds. Hearing them sing made me happy. So then I began buying food for the birds. It led me to plant native plants for them. Now I want to build a pond for the birds. Then put bird houses and places for them to be more protected against predators. I have stray cats around the area they don't get into my area because of my dogs, but the birds have their nest near my backyard not in it. I'm not only planting for the birds, but also for the pollinators. It will be like a mini forest. The little I have done and I can tell the difference on how lively everything is. I don't know how smart birds are, but they were singing outside while I was cleaning up the back yard and I herd a bunch of them chirp like crazy. I looked up and of to a distance I saw a cat. I wanted to go grab it. It was a beautiful cat really fluffy, but it ran away. After the cat left the birds stopped chirping like crazy and began singing again. Nature is beautiful. I wish I could've done it sooner. At the end of the day we can all do our part. We need to be held accountable too. If you don't have a place find out where you can plant trees and native plants. Don't use so much plastic. Our government won't do anything if we don't take action ourselves. If you do have a yard plant a small native tree. Provide water and food, plant some flowers for pollinators. Try to find out ways to get rid of pest without pesticides. Let's not kill our planet.
I get goose bumps when he ends by saying " let's plant some more" under his breath.
