Bet You Didn't Know Trees Could Paint...Or Move 186,000 Miles a Year!

After spending a drizzly Sunday morning trekking along an aerial trail in the canopy of a West Coast rainforest at the UBC Botanical Garden, I was inspired to learn a little more about trees.
The memorable tree scene from Lord of The Rings isn't too far from reality (who wouldn't love to see that in real life!). Trees are social beings and what they do for even the most hardened criminals is pretty cool...
This five minute TED Talk from Nalini Nadkarni is fascinating. Enjoy!
