It is vital that subsidies be stopped for logging virgin timber on state or federal land, or anywhere else. We need to provide incentives for recycling and treeless paper and "wood" products, so as to create less need to cut trees. Use of intact ecosystems for new development should be halted completely. There are many other solutions for development - there is much degraded land that could be used, and urban planning that could be done to eliminate our necessity to destroy yet more ecosystem for McMansion development. Our economies can remain healthy without cowtowing to vested interests, and the time for vested interests to determine the future for us and for our children is over. |
