“As a child and into young adulthood I couldn’t understand how just an owl and a few acres of saved old growth forest completely devastated my hometown, my friends’ families, my state, and practically the whole economy of the PNW. We’ve got A LOT of forest! I had often wondered if the owl was just an excuse. It just never added up to me. This explains that it wasn’t just a bird and a few tree hugging hippies that shut the industry down. It also helped me to better understand that when I return home now days as to why there are huge swaths of clear cut forests.
I’m very sorry for this sad era but also grateful we don’t toothpick overly managed forests as they do in the rest of the world.
That you 1000x for this Adam Scott!”
