So what, exactly, are they perserving these "Virgin forests" for, if not as renewable resources? Their scenic value? Who traipses through arctic forests? In the summer you can't see anything through the clouds of mosquitos, and in the winter you can't see anything because your eyeballs freeze.

The STANDARD LIBERAL ANSWER is:

We are preserving them for future generations.......

At which time you say, "In approximately 4 billion years the sun will become a Red Giant and will vaporize this planet and everthing in it." .......
