Tree of at least 5 meters in height found upright in the middle of multiple rock
layers.
The dating of rock layers is often used to predict age, these rock layers could be said to be thousands of years old, but the fossilized tree in their layers tells a different story about the age of the rock layers. A tree upright for thousands of years would have decayed before fossilizing like this

And
as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man:
They
ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them
all.
Luke
17:26–27 In the days of Noah God says, “every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually,” yet Noah was a righteous man in the midst of this generation. Noah, like you and I, are called to live life swimming upstream in a culture that is moving downstream towards sin and destruction.Can We Trust the Authenticity of Noah’s Flood…Is Their Supporting Evidence?

By Faith We Obey Even When there is no end in sight
From the time of God’s instruction to build the ark and God sending the floodwaters was a space of about 100
years.
Genesis 5:32, 6:10 seem to indicate that Noah was 500 years old when He received the command from God to build and at 600 he boarded the ark.
Genesis 6:3 seems to indicate that from the time of God’s decision to destroy man and their destruction was a space of 120 years.

and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly
2 Peter
2:5
Noah could have lost heart because of the sheer size of the ark, he could’ve become disillusioned because of the 100 years between the command and the flood, he could’ve become discouraged because after 100 years of preaching he had no converts, but Noah by faith continued to obey!

“Like Enoch, Noah also walked with God (Gen. 6:9). His special contribution to the gallery of pioneers of faith was his implicit obedience to God’s commands in spite of evidence to the contrary. His ark-building was dramatic proof of taking God at his word. His actions more than his words were a condemnation to a sinful, disobedient generation. In the process, his ark became a prototype of salvation through Christ alone, and is seen as such through New Testament
eyes”
