Meet the Tree: Why Jesse Owens Really Brought Hitler's Olympic Gift Home
Mein Name ist Bex Schwab und mein Titel ist Direktor der Erwärmung und Gemeinschaftsforscherie bei Holmen Forest & Gardens. Ein einfacherer Weg, das zu sagen, ist, dass ich ein Treescientist bin. Ich liebe es, über Trees zu sprechen.

A lot of times they'll actually like produce a lot more acorns or whatever their seed is, because at the end of the life, they want to make sure they can put as much effort into reproduction as possible to pass on their genes. I've even heard people call it like the glory of a tree under stress, because then sometimes they're just covered with flowers. And you're like, this tree is doing great.

It's producing so many flowers and so many seeds, but it's because it's under stress and it knows it's going out. And so it just spends that last burst of energy to try to make sure it sends its genetics forwards.

So if you want a genetically identical individual, what you can do is you get like a young twig essentially off of it. And I've done this process before and I feel kind of like a witch when I'm doing it. Because basically we'll take a tree that's in a pot and we'll get a twig from another tree and we cut the tree that's in the pot.

And then we cut the twig off the tree and you have to like use a little knife to get it to line up exactly. And then you put them together and you just like wrap it with like a rubber band essentially and you dip it in wax. So I should point out that none of that sounds like it should work. Right.

And then when the spring comes, it'll leaf out with, you know, the roots from the other tree and the twig from the other tree. So basically what you've done, you've taken a piece of this tree, you've given it new roots and a new life. And it's basically a new individual that's only instead of the 80 something years old that that whole tree is, that twig is only a couple of years old.

And that's one of the environmental injustices that the community, forestry community, is trying to really face and address right now. um zu sagen, dass wir mehr Bäume in diese Bereiche bekommen müssen. Denn als Bäuerin sehe ich alle Vorteile von Bäumen. Es hilft der mentale Gesundheit, es hilft dem Stress, es macht es kühler, wenn es heiße Tage gibt.

Es schafft Raum für die Gemeinschaft, um mit Leuten zu hangen. Ich würde gerne denken, dass Jesse Owens möchte, dass diese Bäume wachsen, überleben und wachsen. Aber es ist auch eine Möglichkeit für uns, Aufmerksamkeit zu bringen zu diesem Thema und die Gemeinschaft mit ihm zu engagieren.
