Continued from page 20 But when we push projects further away, it increases the carbon footprint, diminishes the economy of scale, and, if it results in the harvesting of trees, causes actual deforestation. Simply put, we must remove all building height restrictions, allowing for multigenerational/multifamily housing and economies of scale sufficient to support mass transit, bike lanes, and other green initiatives. These actions will help keep forests as forests constantly changing, but remaining forests. We can't just say that the forest fires of today are due to climate change from yesterday. It is from natural for- est change too. People debate climate change, but they don't talk about forest change. Many people believe a tree will live till you cut it down; that is ignorant and absurd. The fact that our forests will be changing in 1 year, 10 years, 100 years, or even 1,000 years from now is why we will still be using Hardwoods 1,000 years from now. Because at some point a tree is going to die, at some point a tree is going to age to the end that it begins to rot, becomes less insect resistant, and more susceptible to fire. At some point, it will always make sense to manage the forest by removing trees for wood and storing the carbon from them by creating wood products. Climate Change is only half the story because, while the weather impacts the forest, the forest keeps growing and degrading regardless. If you want to help our industry, then when talking to others… Why knot talk about forest change and not climate change? n MARS HILL JUNE 2014_Layout 1 5/19/14 2:24 PM Page 1 ATTENTION: HARDWOOD PURCHASING AGENTS Do you purchase a minimum of 100,000 board feet of No. 1 Common and Better domestic Hardwoods annually for an enduser?
