Stejarul care a „văzut” Revoluția americană riscă să moară. Cum încearcă specialiștii să-l salveze

Historian Garrison Marcoux reflects on a historic oak tree in South Carolina, which witnessed the Battle of Eutaw Springs during the American Revolutionary War. The tree, now in poor condition, is being preserved by conservationists who aim to save this living testament to history. Despite past efforts, the tree is suffocated by support cables that hinder its growth. Recent conservation techniques involve aerating the soil and injecting nutrients to help the tree recover. Arborist Aron Landsaw emphasizes the importance of this project, hoping the tree will inspire future generations.
