Imagine hanging from a large rainforest tree in a makeshift harness made from seat-belt straps! Nobody has ever ventured into the rainforest canopy, so you have no idea what you will face. You don’t even know if the harness that you made yourself will hold! Meet Meg Lowman, the first person to venture high into the tree canopy of the rainforest. Follow Meg on her journey around the world, educating people about the wonders of the tree canopy while striving to protect the receding rainforests.
