"Redwood Trees: A Growing Presence in WA's Forests"

Redwood trees, typically found in California, are being planted in Washington and Oregon as a potential solution to climate change threats facing the region's forests. While some believe redwoods could play a key role in forest resiliency due to their carbon absorption and resistance to fire and disease, others are concerned about the ecological impact on native plants and animals. The debate continues as tree farmers and organizations experiment with growing redwoods in the Pacific Northwest, with some seeing promising results while others prefer to stick with native species.
