[tom67264]

100's of years to regrow?? I know of a place that forested back from a wildfire less that 30 years ago! if you come back and call me a moron I will stop and take photo and SHOW you!!

maybe they wanted to see how long and how it would recover by it self : )

[YouAreALLDumbNblind]

@Animation445 possible. but others are saying the Forrest agency did help

[salvadory]

they did actually the forest service and volunteers have spent the last 30 years doing!

I like your basic idea that people should be trying to improve bad situations but you should probably go to wikipedia and look up "Arbor Day".

[YouAreALLDumbNblind]

@andyfreeberg and here i thought that was either a gay Canadian or Michigan holiday. thanks for the heads up!! =) now i will be ready for Arboy day

It takes hundreds of years for a forest and an ecosystem to "recover".
