So it’s an important plant in any botanist’s view of the plant world - you inevitably run across it early in your training. And ginkgo is the only one that consists of just one species. Peter Crane: I think that anyone who is seriously interested in plants inevitably comes across ginkgo pretty early in their training, because there are only five living groups of seed plants, and ginkgo is one of them. How did you come to develop an interest in them? Yale Environment 360: You’ve been studying ginkgo trees for a long time.
The ginkgo, which co-existed with the dinosaurs, “really puts our own species - let alone our individual existence - into a broader context,” says Crane. The Soviets obviously saw this as a direct threat and responded with the Warsaw Pact.In an interview with Yale Environment 360, Crane explains what makes the ginkgo unique and what makes it smell, how its toughness and resilience has enabled it to thrive, and what the tree’s long history says about human life on earth. This revolved around “Western Germany, which is being remilitarized, and her inclusion in the North Atlantic bloc, which increases the danger of a new war and creates a threat to the national security of peace-loving states.” This passage referred to the decision by the United States and the other members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) on to make West Germany a member of NATO and allow that nation to remilitarize. The introduction to the treaty establishing the Warsaw Pact indicated the reason for its existence. The treaty called on the member states to come to the defense of any member attacked by an outside force and it set up a unified military command under Marshal Ivan S. The Warsaw Pact, so named because the treaty was signed in Warsaw, included the Soviet Union, Albania, Poland, Romania, Hungary, East Germany, Czechoslovakia and Bulgaria as members.
The Soviet Union and seven of its European satellites sign a treaty establishing the Warsaw Pact, a mutual defense organization that put the Soviets in command of the armed forces of the member states.
