The Lost Forest | Nobel Peace Prize Shorts

An international team of scientists and explorers, lead by Dr Julian Bayliss, go on an extraordinary mission in Mozambique to reach a forest that no human has set foot in. The team, including some of the world’s foremost climate change experts, aims to collect data from the forest to help in our understanding of how climate change is affecting our planet. But the forest sits atop a mountain, and to reach it, the team must first climb a sheer 100m wall of rock. The scientists’ work is based on research conducted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, recipients of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007.

" What we are doing to the forests of the world is but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and to one another. "

Would have loved to hear a bit of the local community’s knowledge of the mountain. They said no one had gone up to the forest, but did they have stories of why or what they thought was up there? Also would have liked to know the specialities of the members of the expedition.

This kind of media should be the ones that is shown to the youth today. It shows the perfection and beauty of nature as it is. We should be thankful enough to have lived in this time where nature still exist but also be responsible for passing it to the next generations. Best documentary i have ever seen in my life 👍.

" Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better' Albert Einstein, This quote has always been an inspiration and rightly represents the blessings of nature. Born and raised in a pristine mountain environment I always feel the nature very spiritual.

[Sjalabais]

Such a paradox, in order to study an undisturbed biotope, you'll need to disturb it.

"Earth is not a platform for human life, it's a living being, we are not on it, but part of it, its health is our health "

[davidwebb]

[Laurenmc]

I so wish the video was longer! The excitement I felt waiting for them to reach the top and see what was up there was immense. It makes me so sad to think about what we are doing to our planet, I hope we can turn things around before it is too late
