Chapter 24: Seed Plants I: Gymnosperms

Forests and Grasslands
Just how natural is your world? You can probably get out of a city and see some forest and grasslands, but are they natural? Is there really any part of the United States that has not had its forests cut down, even national parks? After an area has been cut, how many years does it take to regain a forest whose main trees live thousands of years? Are there still any natural forests left to see? If yes, are the natural areas any larger than a city park? Go to the web site "Umpqua Watersheds, Inc." for information, and maybe some inspiration.
