1,000 Year Clock of planted trees

Paolo Savagione (lead engineer on our Clock Project) sent in this nifty video of a 1000 year forestry-clock idea in France. We have talked about ideas like this for the 10,000 Year Clock, but this is the first simulation of such an idea I have seen. I think however that there might be more successful ways to use this idea that would be as interesting in the moment as they would be in time lapse.
