We live in a fungal world, that we are just beginning to seriously explore. I was listening to a podcast about someone in the forest service who said they barely mention fungal networks in forestry colleges. If true, it would be like studying the human body, but ignoring the heart and circulatory system.
Does anyone know what the current position of the forest service is in fungal networks?
The only thing I've read online is where they are considering using fungicide to kill an oak fungus. My first thoughts on that were about potential unintended consequences of killing fungal networks in a forest.
