Once… Deep in the forest, After days of rain
Fruiting bodies appear. Different shapes, colours, and intentions.
Spores release.
And the cycle of start-ups continues.
Now What?
Leadership
No, it takes a cooperative
In a forest?
AH who loves a debate?
Resolution: Members of the Forest community are here because of the evolutionary principals of natural selection and survival of the fittest.
Defending the resolution....
Opposing the resolution....
Arguments ~~>
This forest belongs to the old oaks, red cedars and firs.
They have survived and have authority over the region.
We all have a right to self-determination.
The grand old trees need us as much as we need them. Solidarity. Biodiversity. Interdependence.
Pluralism!
The Newcomers
Competition
Cooperation and symbiosis - mutualism
Who do you identify with, your species or the forest?
Kinship within a neighbourhood
Synergy versus Exclusivity
THE DECISION
Ultimately, ecosystems are dynamic whereby cooperation and competition are equal forces. Hence forests will survive climate change.
FunGuys and their start-ups!
THE END
