look at this MONEY

you realize the wood industry is hurting right now, right?

not for me yet cuz i plant them

if less wood is being use by sawmills and P&P, then less trees need to be plantes

yeah but it doesn't work like that

cuz theres a lot of land that needs to get planted and they usually don't get the contracts done and theyre years behind

ah, okay. thanks for the clarification

And first photo is a black spruce

do you have to plant the orphan black spruce because his dad took off?

yes but dont worry the community is not destitute, there are white spruce as well.

Okay real talk. So the climate people are saying blah blah blah not enough trees, since you are doing stuff with trees what is your opinion?

Climate is changing but its not man made, conifer trees are retreating further north and deciduous trees are moving further north

But theyve been saying this for a while and its only very subtly

But they also are saying that there is like severe shortages from cutting down trees. But isnt it in tree cutters best interest to plant more trees and stuff?

they do, since they need the raw materials

but wood and P&P industry is using less trees since there's been a market slowdown over the past few years. at least in canada

Oh so we arent even losing as many trees as they make it sound anyway

No thats retarded

i can only speak for canada. but it makes sense that sawmills and P&P industry plant more trees. if there are no trees, they cease to function

the boreal forest is so massive it would take a mission of a millions of men to cut down the forest to make a noticeable difference and it would still take a millennia

not functioning is a poor business practice

And as far as fires are concerned what do you guys think? Is it mostly due to poor management?

probably

regular controlled burns to clear out the under brush reduce the risk of massive wild fires

And I take it the tree huggers dont like that

no because they have down's syndrome

Well in ontario wild fires arent so bad

it's mostly in hot-dry areas. like australia and commiefornia. though there were some bad ones in western canada a couple of years ago

ahem...BC

Yeah thats true I was in alberta during those bad wild fires

Its normal

it happens
