Politics Of Tree Preservation For Global Security

[belovelife]

ok , i am in a debate on tree protection, mainly the redwoods and the old growth that is left

 

this is a dynamic concept where there are many things to take into consideration

 

work

material (wood)

safety

global perspective

etc.

 

(any additions would be welcome to the debate)

 

while we are in a century that understands the global impact of cutting down the planets main carbon sequestering mechanism ( besides the ocean)

 

we understand that the economics involved are also an issue, especially in this economy

 

while the concept of preservation and selective "grooming" of a forest are understood, the economics of the situation

drive the continual deforestation

 

what i am looking for is a solution

 

while i understand that no 1 simple solution ( besides stop cutting trees) will solve the problem, i also understand the global implications for the generations to come, if we do not stop

 

 

as a beginning to this debate

 

 

how can we change the industry, and protect especially the old growth?
