“Be like a tree in pursuit of your cause. Stand firm, grip hard, thrust upward. Bend to the winds of heaven..”

Richard St. Barbe Baker

“Every charitable act is a stepping stone toward heaven.”

Henry Ward Beecher

Ecosystem wholesale destruction

November 6 is the International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of the Environment in War and Armed Conflict. What a day to remember!

In the last two years of World War I over half of the productive forests in Britain were lost to the war effort. They were needed for building up the trenches, building up barbed wire fencing, providing a wood sidewalk during years of constant rain.

Whatever trees were not chopped down for the war effort, were brought down for lighting and heating houses domestically in Britain.

There was not much difference between the clear-cut forests and the ensuing fire devastation of the lands of Britain, and the flattened landscapes of France in the theatre of war. Where did the forests go for places of spiritual, mental and psychological refuge? They were gone.

Trenches and aerodromes, forests fell and continued to fall during the First World War. “By the end of the First World War, it is estimated that 85,000 tonnes of round timber, 260 million board feet of lumber and over 200,000 tons of fuel and slabs were harvested by the Forestry Corps.”source

“During the month of October 1918 alone, over 53 million board feet was cut by the forestry troops.”source

“The same demand for wood arose during the Second World War”source

It was the destruction of the ecosystem, without a doubt.source

Now, what does the have to do with Richard St. Barbe Baker? Well Rudy Haase, an environmentalist forming the Friends of Nature, in 1960, joined the campaign to reforest Sahara desert. “In 8 years the Sahara could be a green homeland for millions of people if a force equal to standing armies of the world started work. A 50, 000 square mile subterranean lake makes St. Barbe Baker’s grand plan possible.”source

“Baker’s visions of a green peace where armies can be reorganized to undertake tasks such as turning deserts into forests have inspired millions.”source

So, this peaceful use of the armies of the world for desertification purposes was a vision of Richard St. Barbe Baker’s.

A real-life Saskatoon mystery.  Search for the Missing Linden!

On June 4 and 5, 1984 – also celebrating World Environment Day – Saskatoon hosted the founding conference of the Richard St Barbe Baker foundation. The conference was to promote the wise use and conservation of the world’s tree resources.

Now, then as part of the aforementioned conference ceremonies, a Linden tree, Tiliaceae, was planted at two locations in Saskatoon; Diefenbaker Center and at the west side entrance of Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area.

“Those who dare seek, shall find what they are seeking for.”

― Lailah Gifty Akita

Extraordinary legacy tour of Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area

As part of the City of Saskatoon’s very first Arbor Week, the Friends of the Saskatoon Afforestation Areas Inc hosted the Extraordinary legacy tour of Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area with Robert White as guest speaker.

Robert White Tour: The remarkable legacy of Richard St. Barbe Baker

His presentation was a heartfelt speech of his memories and time getting to know Richard St. Barbe Baker. It was poignant, touching, and truly gave meaning to the legacy of Richard St. Barbe Baker, founder of the International Tree Foundation.

I approach God’s Creation, this beautiful Earth. The ancients believed that the Earth was a sentient being and felt the behavior of mankind upon it. As we have no proof to the contrary, it might be as well for responsible people to accept this point of view and behave accordingly.

Richard St. Barbe Baker

I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.

Spring Walk in Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area

Description and Directions
Extraordinary legacy tour of Richard St. Barbe Baker and the 326 acre afforestation area named in his honour.

Robert White will share his knowledge about Richard St. Barbe Baker who, by some estimates, has been responsible for planting at least 26 billion trees during his lifetime through international organisations he founded or assisted. Many world wide tree planting organisations have arisen inspired by his legacy and have gone on to plant many more billions of trees. Arbor Week is a fitting time to commemorate the legendary work of Richard St. Barbe Baker as 50 years ago the University of Saskatchewan recognized the extraordinary achievements of Baker which had a sustained impact on others’ lives and provided inspiration for others. This tour will have two leaders to share stories about this heritage forest and how Saskatoon was a pioneer in creating nature based climate action solutions with the planting of this man-made forest on the prairies.

Meet up on Sunday May 30, 2021 at two p.m. for a Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area RSBBAA tour. The location will be the South West Off leash recreation area parking lot, and proceed from there. We encourage those arriving for the tour to bring-wear facemasks, and observe social distancing to comply with outdoor COVID protocols. Free facemasks will be available.

There are three afforestation namesakes to consider for today, on the International Day of Awesomeness.

Awesome people have awesome attitudes and do things awesomely. If you want to build and maintain an awesome attitude, get into the habit of living in the present and doing it now. source

Richard St. Barbe Baker was a truly awesome conservationist, and forester.  He did amazing work worldwide by encouraging afforestation and reforestation projects.  In this era of climate change, this is a momentous undertaking to be responsible for billions of trees planted around the world.

George Genereux was an awesome author, illustrator, radiologist, Olympic Gold Medalist, and the youngest to win the Canadian Lou Marsh trophy.

Benjamin Chappell was an awesome CNR Saskatchewan district superintendent, and was very active in the community being also on the board of the Exhibition.  He was beloved and respected for his role in the community and the largest farewell dinner ever in Saskatoon was held when he was transferred to British Columbia.

To celebrate International Day of Awesomeness, come out to the awesome afforestation areas after the Coronavirus outbreak has passed.  Take time to nurture yourself in nature, unwind, and enjoy the eco-system when  you celebrate that the Coronavirus outbreak has subsided.  In the meantime, stay well and healthy and follow protocols set by City of Saskatoon,  Saskatchewan Health and Health Canada in regards to the Coronavirus.  Best wishes to you all.

E. E. Cummings born October 14, 1894 [a fellow Libran]
what if a much of a which of a wind

what if a much of a which of a wind
gives the truth to summer’s lie;
bloodies with dizzying leaves the sun
and yanks immortal stars awry?
Blow king to beggar and queen to seem
(blow friend to fiend: blow space to time)
-when skies are hanged and oceans drowned,
the single secret will still be man

what if a keen of a lean wind flays
screaming hills with sleet and snow:
strangles valleys by ropes of thing
and stifles forests in white ago?
Blow hope to terror; blow seeing to blind
(blow pity to envy and soul to mind)
-whose hearts are mountains, roots are trees,
it’s they shall cry hello to the spring

what if a dawn of a doom of a dream
bites this universe in two,
peels forever out of his grave
and sprinkles nowhere with me and you?
Blow soon to never and never to twice
(blow life to isn’t:blow death to was)
-all nothing’s only our hugest home;
the most who die, the more we live

“St. Barbe’s unique capacity to pass on his enthusiasm to others. . . Many foresters all over the world found their vocations as a result of hearing ‘The Man of the Trees’ speak. I certainly did, but his impact has been much wider than that. Through his global lecture tours, St. Barbe has made millions of people aware of the importance of trees and forests to our planet.” Allan Grainger

“The science of forestry arose from the recognition of a universal need. It embodies the spirit of service to mankind in attempting to provide a means of supplying forever a necessity of life and, in addition, ministering to man’s aesthetic tastes and recreational interests. Besides, the spiritual side of human nature needs the refreshing inspiration which comes from trees and woodlands. If a nation saves its trees, the trees will save the nation. And nations as well as tribes may be brought together in this great movement, based on the ideal of beautifying the world by the cultivation of one of God’s loveliest creatures – the tree.” ~ Richard St. Barbe Baker.

“I believe in the Oneness of Mankind and all living things and the interdependence of each and all.” Richard St. Barbe Baker

Dr. Richard St. Barbe Baker OBE (1889-1982) was arguably the first global conservationist, blazing a trail for contemporary environmental leaders such as Jane Goodall. He began his mission to save the world’s forests in 1922, when he started the first international ENGO, Men of the Trees, in Kenya. Baker was a visionary pioneer of concepts/practices such as sustainable development, agroforestry, agroecology, desert reclamation, fair trade, and ecotourism. Starting in 1931, he wrote thirty books about these ideas.
