  • Wood isn’t particularly sustainable the way it is being “farmed.”

    We’re annihilating the rainforests and interior forests of north-west North America to build homes, and its not sustainable at all.

    The pine beetle epidemic that has ravaged the interior forests of British Columbia is due to two things. One is warmer winters from climate change. The other is that the logging industry replanted the logged forests with the species of pine they could sell the easiest, not what was good for the forests or the land. if they had planted any sort of diversity of trees it would not have been nearly as bad as it turned out.
