This goes to all newbies in general, but I'm posting here since I just witnessed this in NW Bottleneck. Chopping down trees still in the sapling stage is one of the most shortsighted things you can do. You don't even get lumber from it. Please wait for trees to grow to their final stage before chopping. If you want LP, get pottery, find a clay pit in a mud flats (brown area), and make lots of tea pots, mugs, and the like. You don't even have to burn them in a kiln to get the points.
In other news, most of the trees in the western extent of Bottleneck are now gone. Including the ones needed to grow new trees.
