About [Edit]
Sudden Oak Life is a movement to put forth a more global, systems approach in understanding and solving the tree decline problem here in California and elsewhere. By recognizing that, while disease or insects may be finishing off many of the trees, the greater problem is "novel forest decline", here linked to fire suppression and subsequent soil acidification and mineral depletion, which weakens and sickens the trees first. Thus, our efforts to solve the problem focus on boosting the fertility of the soils with natural, mineral-rich fertilizers so that the trees are healthier and better able to survive attacks by diseases and pests.

Hi Lee. I would like to echo Angela and say thanks for bringing this up and building this organization. I am interested to know how you and the members/volunteers make change. What are the main points of action to ensure healthy continued growth of the tree population? I am somewhat familiar with the clear-cutting and timber industry issues and methods but the work of "Sudden Oak Life" is new. Thanks again.
