- Joshua Tree National Park, with its mysterious rock formations and iconic trees, has long provided a haven for those seeking an inspirational experience. But with current threats from air pollution, fires, and global warming, scientists believe the majority of Joshua Trees may be gone in less than 100 years. As the trees disappear, this amazing wonderland will be changed forever.

I’m currently working in the city of Mojave on a solar project. It’s pretty sad see the baron landscape wiped out of the Joshua tree for solar panels.
The carbon footprint of these projects conflicts me of this renewable energy wave. Machines, garbage, waste and intrusion of natures inhabitants is sad.
Very interesting video
Great documentary thx for uploading
Well done, keep it up, thank you!
Nice video!
Went to Anza Borrego (low desert of southern Calif). a few months ago, and wow what a shock.
The desert garden they have is now is a few dead stumps and dirt. Pup fish pond choked with reeds. It's been completely neglected.
Tragic. :(
Very sad for the Beautiful park and it's wildlife.
Beautiful piece. My distant cousins of that region knew what they had. A very sacred, spiritual, cosmic frontier. I love that people have discovered it, but I also hate that they have because we are just so reckless and careless about the environments we impose ourselves upon.
Love the song there at the end. Where can I find it?
I hate BS videos like this! I've lived in the area for 36 years, the worse thing thats happened to the Desert is the LA movement! I've seen more destruction, vandalism & trash out here than ever. Social Media & the promotion of the JT park is destroying it. As for the Joshua Tree, all this nonsense about them being so fragile & delicate is shit! We've transplanted many of them in the past, all of them are still alive & well, seen many burn & they eather come back or the same root system just spouts new ones, seen them pushed over & continue to grow straight upward. They are a extremely tough plant & have survived in one or the hardest environments. As for the comment about the grass, in the 1800s there was waist high grass here in the desert Cattlemen would drive their Cattlemen from Big Bear in the summer to NM for the winter.
Climate Changes, PERIOD! it has & always will.
Thank you 🙏 please share
Joshua Trees are NOT Agaves they are in the Yucca Family.
Actually yuccas ARE in the agave family. Look it up, they are in the Agavacae family with nolinas, agaves, dasylirions, and hesperaloes.
This film is useless without a specific call to action. A website to visit, a petition, anything? Huge fail.
You want to do something? You want to help us keep our trees? Then go out and start a petition instead of whining about it. People like you are the reason our trees are dying. Stay out of Yucca Valley.
Hard to kill
Not true man there in Utah to bud Arizona CA NV and parts of Idaho.
So people like to dig them up to plant houses there.
Really red rock has a market for homes now thx vages.
Droughts trees dead
The Joshua Trees that grow here in JT and YV are a different species, they aren't the same as the ones you find in arizona or wherever else. They're only native to Southern California.
Total BS...I've been going to Joshua Tree from my first year in boy scouts 55 years ago, I camp there at least once a year. I have not seen a place that has changed less in my lifetime. Joshua trees live up to 200 years , if new Joshua trees took every year we would have Joshua trees up the @ss & they are sharp!
Than you don't know much about science Rob. The rise in temperatures is hindering their reproduction. I've lived in Joshua Tree 37 years and was visiting way before that.
I don’t think I understand your conflict against the video.
I think you make his point. No?
Solutions or calls to action? Otherwise this piece is just another pity party.
Then bring in Hugh fans to blow the smog out
Then you go their and water them
Oh well, something new will come along - adapt or die.
Arrogant words coming from someone who has clearly never lived in JT or the Yucca Valley area. Why don't all you LA folks go back to the city where you belong and stop ruining our towns. You come here where you're not wanted and all you do is leave your trash everywhere and disturb the peace. When I was still young it was a quiet place, now you can hardly get any quiet unless you go all the way out to the mountains. Now there's been a string of murders along our highway and you have the nerve to make such a stupid comment about these trees like there nothing. These trees have been here for thousands of years and now there going away because of a problem you lot have made. All this progress and accomplishment the state of CA has been pushing is doing nothing but ruining the quiet peaceful parts of the state and now we have all the LA filth coming to our towns and ruining it for all of us who were born here. Can't even take a relaxing late night walk anymore with all the murders happening. Why don't you go take a walk down highway 62 past 29 palms at night and then tell me to adapt or die. You'll be lucky to make it 50 yards or you'll find an ice pick in your eye socket. Go back to LA you are not welcome in Yucca Valley.
The Cleansing is happening.
