typical word play in the original post. not blaming the OP, but I am blaming his sources for fear mongering. opening 112M acres for logging doesn't mean that 112M acres will be logged. Today, we log anywhere from 2M to 10M acres a year in the US. The directive from President Trump is to increase logging by 25% domestically. That means 500K to 2.5M acres will be logged out of the 112M acres. We are talking about .45% to 2.23% of the 112M acres being logged. We have 823M acres of forest in the US. When you look at the amount of total forest impact, we are talking about to .06% to .30% of the forest being logged annually under this new rule. Is this really a sky is falling moment? NOT EVEN CLOSE. It is more whipped up hysteria from the true enemy of the people, the media.

Well that sucks.

I'd guess that 98%+ of the people who are interested in the phenomenon rarely if ever go boots on the ground. You are doing it and getting results. I love it!! Keep sharing. Thank you for your efforts.

Thanks so much for this. I watched the whole thing. The most credible witness ever. These two guys are the real deal.

The federal forests around me need thinning badly. Fires get worse every year. I welcome this news.

no one cares, get over it. This a forum dedicated to BiGFo0T
