Trembling Giants

    For in the true nature of things, if we rightly consider, every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver. (Martin Luther)

      Grand - I would be keen to see how the Wollemi Pine fits into this.

      Stunning! Beautiful infographic. Unfortunately the apostrophe in Earth's is going the wrong way...an easy fix

      Very cool, but difficult to figure out which tree corresponds to which point on the map. Following curvy lines through a mess of other curvy lines sucks.

      good call on centering the map on the Pacific.
      balances out the upper graphics nicely.

      a couple of people are saying that it's hard to connect trees with places - i agree. think a simple way to fix this would be to give the lines different line weights, according to approximate age of the tree. the youngest gets the thinnest lines. that way it would be easy to see where the most old trees are!
