We are proud to announce our contribution to “World Wide Wood,” an inspiring new project on Google Arts & Culture! This initiative celebrates the stunning beauty and vital importance of trees globally. We invite you to explore breathtaking visuals and captivating stories, including our own unique perspective.
About the Project:
The “World Wide Wood” project is the world’s largest online database of tree stories, featuring over 400 exhibits from more than 100 global partners across 36 countries.
From social networks to ecosystem engineers, Google invites audiences to immerse themselves in the wonders and benefits of the world’s oldest, largest and tallest organisms in the world, through stunning photography, engaging stories, surprising facts, audio, video, 3D models, and educational materials. The project gives insight into the important relationship we have with trees and showcases expert-led content on the vital role they play.
