Reply to comment by cistacea in Logged forest compared with an unlogged forest could be better for climate change. A detailed assessment of vegetation growth, bird and mammal numbers, and energy flows in logged and unlogged forests offers some surprising findings. by Creative_soja
Yup, has anyone ever met a forester who was completely anti-logging? Nope. Because foresters and some loggers know how the forest works.

Literally decades of my dad and other older lumberjacks telling me about how the West Coast forests used to regularly burn, and forest fire prevention efforts were actually making the forest fires worse, but my mom's family, who are all very well educated and environmentally conscious laughing them all off as uneducated idiot who just want to make a buck from strip mining the Earth. And then, everybody started learning from Dr Paul hesberg about the era of megafires which completely validated everything that my dad's family had always been said.
