take trees of mature quality. clear-cut ,,,, who -the-hell made this up????? diversified forests are the way to go ,, man-made or not . talk to the farmers ,, the original conservationalists . my grandfather never ran out of wood on his 100 acres ,,selling to the mills .

Oh man...its a real live Transformer!!!

That thing is crazy quick and effecient.

 

The faster we can take 'em away, the less time to re-grow we have....

Here's an idea....

 

Can we not form our own little version of OPEC?

Timber Supply is running low so lets jack the rates for Canadian lumber.

If they can do it with oil, why can't we do it with lumber...or water for that matter.

 

Let start a price war, and see if we can get some cheaper gas LOL!

Sawmills are big business up here, but most of them are shut down right now. The strong Canadian dollar and the economic slowdown in the US are to blame.

Yes, renewable...

A tree in the boreal forest takes at least 100 years to grow to a size able to harvest again.

It's just not that simple although I wish it was.

Governments need to implement more regulations on recyclable materials on industry, in my opinion.

Individuals by them self really can't make a difference.

Sure it is!... if you cut a tree for harvest, plant one back! If the loggers of 100 yrs. ago had had the foresight there wouldn't be any problems... you could cut 100 yr old trees every year!
