I live on a ridge in a redwood forest. On MY side (the east slope) the trees grow incredibly slowly, giving them very straight grain and very tight rings. Across the road from me (the west slope) the trees are much faster growing, due to the overabundance of coastal fog, giving those trees a very loose grain and far fewer rings. The eastern trees are much better quality as a result.
People can be such morons about the climate.
Eggsackley so......
