Rows of replanted cedar trees on a mountain above the Cedars of God, the most famous cedar patch in Lebanon. @unesco added the #CedarsOfGod to its list of #worldheritage sites 20 years ago. The forest is isolated, and its ability to expand is limited. Now Unesco says it’s one of the sites most vulnerable to #climatechange. Across Lebanon, cedar trees are moving up the mountains to higher altitudes, chasing the cold winters they need to reproduce. But in some places, there isn’t much farther up to go. In order to protect the #cedars from total destruction, various Lebanese conservation groups are trying to diversify their locations and expand their populations. The main goal of replanting, they say, is to make the cedar forests larger and more resilient to whatever future environmental pressures they face. Cedars grow slowly, bearing no cones until they are 40 or 50 years old. When they’re young by cedar standards, they look much like other conifers, pointy, like Christmas trees. But after about a century, they morph into their distinctive shape. The trunk thickens, the branches spread parallel to the ground, the cones perch atop them like resting birds.
