In Davos 2020, the world leaders pledge to plant 1 trillion trees to save forests and climate. However, when we looked around Davos around 1/3rd of the trees were dying. William Blake said, "The trees that move some to the tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way." It is not enough to plant the trees but also to develop a new relationship with them so that we can develop a new relationship with ourselves. In this candid conversation with Dr. Laura Pustarfi, we will learn why connecting with a tree is important, and how we can foster this connection. Interwoven with her own personal story, this interesting conversation opens a portal to see how trees can provide the meaning of life.
