Plant photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide gas from the atmosphere. Roots bind soil against erosion. They also bring a better price. They have more 10 to 20 growth rings per inch compared to three to six rings in a smaller tree. It is a fact that Sequoia trees have economic value.
Sequoia wood is so strong and naturally resistant to moisture and insects.
Yet, those qualities can be artifificially applied to inferiror timber when treated with preservatives. The clear grain of the Sequoia, however, cannot be artifically produced. An average old growth Sequoia log is twice the diameter of a younger tree and has the economic value of four times as much. Sequoia redwood is competitively priced with other woods. This is the result of using young Sequoia redwood trees.
