Dr. Reese Halter Biography

Dr. Reese Halter is an award-winning conservation scientist father best selling author syndicated science writer and TV nature documentary host.
Dr. Reese’s love of Nature began as a child. A springtime tree-planting ritual with his father and brother became his passion. He knew from the time he was a child that he wanted to be a tree scientist and went on to attain three university degrees including a PhD from The University of Melbourne Australia.
It became clear at a young age to Dr. Reese that there was a tremendous lack of basic information on how trees and forests function. He believed that teams of multidisciplinary problem-solving scientists needed to work together to short-circuit ecological disasters and identify and protect fragile ecosystems.
In the late 1980s Dr. Reese founded Global Forest Science as a charitable international forest research foundation. He donated the first seed money to the foundation. Today with an international team of over 165 scientists Global Forest Science is a world leader in forest science research and conservation and has been called the Red Adair of the forest biology world. Global Forest Science has many victories; including the legislation from Ottawa to protect the threatened westslope cutthroat tout of British Columbia and Alberta; protection of the world’s largest ant colony in Japan; using trees and forests in Manitoba and Wyoming as a barometer of rising global temperatures; opening an international insect quarantine facility at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia; saving New Zealand’s multi-billion-dollar forestry and agriculture industries from the Australian painted apple moth and understanding dieback of the tallest trees on Earth – California redwoods.
