Found this post on IG and I'm wondering what this community's stance is. With winter now officially here*, I think it's a valid question.
Edit: *where I live

A place for enthusiasts of sticks of all shapes and sizes. We all love a good stick! Is it a walking stick? Light Saber? Gun? Looks brown and sticky? You decide!
Feel free to post sticks to rate, sticks that look like things, memes about sticks, long winded rants about the superiority of birch sticks over oak, anything stick related! Natural sticks are preferred, but modification and ornamentation is also fine.

Don't worry, flowers are starting to bloom more and more on Antarctica.
Soon, trees will start to grow so even that continent has sticks!
Wait ... that is even a bigger concern to worry.
When humanity has to move to the poles to survive, I'd rather have trees than not.
Coastal Norway is also pretty warm in this sense, but there aren't any trees far north. I suspect there's more than just warmth they want
Warmth and daylight would be the limiting factors. But there have been trees much further north than the current boreal zone in the past, e.g. https://www.gi.alaska.edu/alaska-science-forum/farthest-north-fossils
