Can Wood Ever Last?
Wood has been the most popular choice for centuries. Its strength makes it ideal for building everything from simple shelters to complex structures. But can wood truly last forever?
The answer is complicated. While certain varieties of wood are incredibly resilient, even the strongest timber can eventually succumb to the ravages of time and nature.
Exposure to elements like moisture, sunlight, and pests can damage wood over time. And while we have developed techniques to protect the life of wood, nothing can truly stop the natural process of decay.
So, may wood ever last forever? Perhaps. But it's more likely that wood will continue to be a valuable and functional resource for as long as we demand its unique properties.
