Four hundred million years ago every continent on Earth was a bare rock desert with nothing living on it. No soil. No shade. No sound. Then plants left the water and in doing so triggered one of the most dramatic transformations in the history of this planet. They invented wood. They invented roots. They invented soil from bare rock. They drew down so much carbon dioxide that they nearly froze the Earth and simultaneously poisoned the oceans causing one of the five greatest mass extinctions in the history of complex life. They filled the atmosphere with so much oxygen that insects grew to the size of eagles and forests burned in continent-scale wildfires. And they eventually produced the fruits that shaped the primate brain that is watching this video right now. This is the complete story of the first trees, told from the very first centimeter-tall leafless stem at the edge of a Silurian sea all the way to the forests we are cutting down today and what the geological record tells us about what happens when forests disappear.
