@g0uveia1 Obviously you need to do a little research. Loggers are required by law to clean up a site once they are done, and the company has to bring in people to reforest the area. IE, plant seeds and make sure they grow. It's not go in, cut everything down, rape the animals up the bum, then leave after slating the earth knuckle head, it's a business, and it's better for business to make sure you have more to come back to later.

i have witnessed first hand...the |sustainable logging" the logger told me that all the trees that were coming out were dead trees..bug kill..so yes..a large amount was bug kill..but in order for the logger to make more money..he needed alive trees..for weight..thats how he got paid was by wieght..there were alot of alive trees being cut and sold. the reforesting program..really..how long till a tree is full grown.and as far as clean up goes..haha thats a joke

@SpidermanRun Im just wondering what your method of harvesting and managing forests is, ive seen a few videos and im not sure of the most sustainable but economically viable way. We need timber no question , so we need to extract local wood.

@IRMOZBEY haha, no, it USE to. . . . . not anymore, the people who still log like this are only doing it because they dont want to go through the trouble of assimilating to modern techniques

@AnaLetixoxo there is nothing wrong with cutting down trees in a sustainable manner. We need to meet our needs as much as nature. If it wasn't for timber what would we build things with? Metal? Well that requires mining which requires removal of trees anyway and causes just as much if not more pollution then timber. Plastics? That needs oil, which is a finite resource and emits all sorts of pollutants.

@guitarguy780 I think they replant what they cut down, don't they?

[vinceat852]

but when to you take away the tree, you take away future compost, thus affecting the forest, right?

[AnaLetixoxo]
