The Large Tree Argument (Booklet)

Reference Type
Technology Transfer Publication

Large stately elm trees once graced many communities throughout the US. But now they are gone. Why were entire communities so disappointed when they lost their elm trees to Dutch elm disease several decades ago? People had a sense that these large trees were important to them, their family, and their community. And this was long before we quantified the benefits of trees. Now we have scientific evidence for what these people knew decades ago.

Formatted for printing as a booklet on either 11" x 17" or 8.5" x 11" paper; if using 8.5" x 11" paper, specify 'Shrink to fit' from the printer dialog.
