Trees have been around for about 370 million years, and as you can from
these incredible pictures, there's a good reason why they've survived for so
long. Whether they're growing in the middle of gale-force winds, on the tops of
rocky platforms, inside concrete tunnels, or even growing out of each other,
trees know how to survive in places that few living organisms can, which
explains why the planet is host to around 3 trillion adult trees that cover an
estimated 30% of the earth's land.
Considering that plants produce the vast majority of the oxygen that we
breathe, we should all think ourselves very fortunate that trees are as
resilient as they are. We wouldn't even be here if they weren't.
