To say that California’s redwoods are amazing is an understatement. The majestic trees that have been around for millions of years have a life span of up to 2,000 years and can reach heights of over 300 feet, so tall that the tops are often invisible. Over the years, researchers have been able to discover a lot about these sturdy survivors that are resistant to pests, fire, and rot, grow three to ten feet a year, and capture more human-generated carbon dioxide (CO2) than any other tree on Earth.

    I've been to the redwoods. It was beautiful. It's like you're an ant compared to the trees. They're basically giants. Lets just put it that way

            The leaves are gorgeous and who knew plants could be so intelligent?! I never knew certain metals could harm a plant so much.
