I hope a large number of those trees are hardwoods. America used to have a premier hardwood furniture industry, but we ran out of good quality hardwoods, and couldn’t replace them because they took too long to grow.

Which is why today much of our furniture is made from pine or oak or synthetics.

Today we should even consider making some GM trees that would not usually grow in North America, like Teak, Mahogany, and others, and modify others to withstand higher temperatures and altitudes.

Planting trees reduces carbon. The libs are going to have a cow.
