The Man Who Planted Trees (Giono, 1953) [PRS53400]


Resource Item

Description

The Man Who Planted Trees — an 8-page story by Jean Giono about deforestation and reforestation — is made available here from the archives of the former Biomass Energy Foundation (BEF). While we strongly support using biomass for energy, we are also very concerned about forest destruction. This delightful story says more than any sermon on the benefits and methods of reforestation.
