Somewhere near Yakima -- Clyde Friend was bulldozing a driveway around his shop when he first saw them in the dirt: gleaming pieces of the past. A forest of stone, more than 15 million years old.

Earth's oldest known tree stood nearly 30 feet tall and looked like a modern palm, a new reconstruction shows. The finding will help scientists understand a crucial turning-point in our planet's history - when the first forests appeared.

This is not a small region previewed here: this is millions of acres of trees that have been removed from the Amazonian rainforests and turned into houses and paper. The amount of devestation is so vast that you can easily see its extent from space. Scroll around and zoom in to see the scale of these logging operations.

Climate change over the past two decades has caused Sweden's tree line to move north at a faster rate than at any time in the past 7,000 years. The trend was clearly provoked mostly by man-made factors.

A 200-year study of rotting logs in the Oregon Cascade Range is only 10 percent complete, but findings from this research have already helped save hundreds of millions of dollars, improved forest health and shattered conventional wisdom about the decay of woody debris.
