Jak vnímáme staré stromy a jakou hodnotu jim přikládali lidé dříve? Máme dnes ještě zájem o starobylé mohutné stromy a jejich svědectví? A jak se vůbec lidská společnost vztahovala ke stromům v historii (památné stromy, paměť stromů) a jak s nimi nakládá v současnosti (stromy v zemědělství, stromy jako symbol či jako klíčová komponenta lesních ekosystémů)? Jak například poznáme, že se stromy používaly pro těžbu pryskyřice? Jaké jsou stopy tradičního ořezávání stromů v současné krajině?

Dlouhodobé úspory pomáhají udržovat stabilní standard a blahobyt lidí v různých fázích života či dokonce podporovat růst životní úrovně v čase, a to i po výpadku příjmů, který lze očekávat např. v důchodu. Hlavními důvody dlouhodobého spoření bývá právě zajištění na důchod, investice do nemovitosti či do vyššího vzdělání, ať už pro sebe, nebo pro své děti. Cílem této studie je identifikovat hlavní faktory, které mohou působit na vytváření dlouhodobých úspor.
