It has been proposed to save this highly endangered tree through “assisted migration” north, which could incidentally be a case of Pleistocene rewilding with a plant.
Genius or madman? The adventure film of the year takes us on a bumpy journey to the Siberian steppes, where a Russian geophysicist wants to restore the ecosystems of the Ice Age through radical rewilding.
