Comment | Please do not consider clear cutting as an improved forest management practice. Clear cutting at least temporarily destroys the part of the forest that is cut. The cut trees rot, releasing their carbon dioxide. For a while there may be no roots to hold water in the soil; this allows water to run off and erode the land. The eroded soil may reach streams with adverse effects on our drinking water and fish. Clear cut forests have no value for most wildlife or human recreation. Thank you for the opportunity to comment, Arthur Unger |
