So,
They’ve finally decided to actually obey the reforestation act of 1964 ?
You know, the one they started ignoring at the start of the spotted owl scam in the early 90’s.
Where they let go Silviculture seasonal employees go from the BLM but kept the timber seasonal employees on and quit planting trees.
300 stems per acre by 3rd year after harvest is the law.
Bout time.
But then again they probably want to force tree planting on productive family owned farmland..............plant trees or go to jail.
We should plant more trees in Ukraine too.
But, as I understand it, the planet is more forested than any time in history.
I believe trees grow back after forest fires, no? Been seeing that all my life with the NJ pine barrens..
Exactly. If Globull Warming was real, they'd be planting cacti on the grounds at the White House.
Cut the damned trees down and plant grass.
She had no answer. Any of the three would do a far better job than Fedzilla in managing our forests.
manifestations of climate change.
They gonna switch to palm trees?
Tree planting has been a big deal as long as I can remember. In Indiana I know of a church youth group that joined with other volunteers to plant trees every year way back when.
Propaganda
Yeah, but at least the bugs are not white males.
The bark beetle.....
We need to clean out the dead wood in CONGRESS!
The trees are starving for more CO2.
Lack of trees... baloney. We have more forests then when the country was first settled.
I beg to differ. The CampFire which literally destroyed the town of Paradise and the Dixie Fire and the Berry Creek Fire which destroyed another few thousand homes here in Butte County were caused by malfunctions of poles and towers owned by PG and E. They are liable for the damage—so—we pay higher rates because they destroyed tens of thousand of homes and killed scores of people through their mis-management...
We would welcome the tree planting here in Butte County. Everyday as I drive up the road, I see the fire scared foothills of where we live—the Swedes Flat Fire, the China Wall Fire and the countless little sub 1,000 acre fires that .burn the hillsides...
Don’t know but I just got done killing a bunch of them trying to take over a field.
Kill bunches of them every year with my bush hog.
Blasted things keep coming back
More CO2 (plant food) = more trees.
National Forest Service has maintained for decades, and still today, that maybe upwards of 80% of forest fires are man made. Stuff doesn’t just burst into flame by itself, and lighting strikes are dramatic but infrequent causes. Forest mismanagement is well known to be responsible for local increases in intensity.
