have seen a rapid decline of native oak trees in the
last ten years attributed to Sudden Oak Death (SOD).
P. ramorum has been isolated as the forest pathogen
focusing the academic and public research agenda.
Integral Ecology offers a systematic approach
as a means of balancing multiple perspectives.
Science is seldom value free and offers more
then one conclusion. Alternatively Sudden Oak Death
is a response to a larger set of variables including
shifting climate, general forest decline and the
ongoing impact from human activities. For an integral
ecology all parties may be partially correct--the
difference is in perspective. The interpretation of
Sudden Oak Death as P. ramorum encourages
institutions to combat the disease using technology
and research as its primary tool. SOD as forest
decline offers a choice to either deny our
role in these changes or to learn and adapt
with it. In this capacity, nature is the teacher and
we are the students.
