Our home! This summer marks the 10th year we have resided here, the longest we have been in any one home as a family, and the longest I have lived anywhere. The house itself is over 90 years old. It has strong bones. I wish that no tree was harmed in its making, but our home, and homes like ours, wiped out California’s old growth Redwood forests. And now, while I am trying to untether myself from my existential guilt of living in a 90 year old house that is built with a 1000 year old tree, Philip Stielstra is planting Redwood trees up the Pacific northwest to give them a chance against climate change (link).
