#52: 2000-Year-Old Tree
If you are currently sitting at a wooden desk or table, your immediate reaction probably isn’t “this wood was cut down from a tree”. We are so used to seeing, using, and admiring wood that we rarely stop and think about the process of getting it.
Well, if this image won’t help you understand we’re not sure what will. This 2000-year-old tree is so large, a man is standing on a ladder to show you the comparison in size… However, it is a shame to see such a beautiful thing being chopped down.
