Sounds like a worthy plan.

For instance, the redwoods in Redwood City (on the SF Penninsula)were clear cut back in the 1800s. The growth up on the ridge line (Skyline Drive) is getting impressive. That is with about 100 years or so of growth. One can only imagine what the area looked like back in the 1700s.

Carefully adopting the 35 year old suggestions of the non-environmentalists, another step into progressive postmodernism leaps into mainstream thinking.

200 trees per acre?? An acre is about 208.7’ x 208.7’. That’s a lot of trees per acre.

I thought logging the forests was bad.

Environmentalists who have fought loggers for generations have a surprising new strategy to save California’s storied old-growth redwood forests: Logging.

Gee? Now why didn't we think of that?

[PAR35]

Chop down the tree to save it?

So it turns out that the so-called ‘save the redwoods’ groups were really loggers assembling large tracts?

[Mariner]

Big Redwoods need space.

Lots of space.

Because they have asbestos in their bark they survive the forest fires that take out all other growth. That’s how they typically get that space.

How many of you have seen the majestic redwoods of Northern CA?

They will make you humble. As will the Giant Sequoias in the Sierras.

I think the logging Industry should Sue, Protest, and anything Possible to STOP This.

The Logging and Timber industries used these EXACT SAME ARGUMENTS when they were Under Assault by the Tree huggers and Environmental Communists.

This sudden revelation by idiot "environmental" come to Jesus moment is so disgusting I can't read the rest of the crap.

Exhibitionist tree-hugging nutjobs have caused more destruction of forests, and more expense to the California economy, the housing industry and the insurance industry, than all the firebugs and careless campers in history.

"Disgusting" is the only word that fits.

Conservatives need to understand that not everyone is the enemy. There are many people not ideologically conservative who genuinely want to do the right thing. We should applaud these people and accept them as allies, not mindlessly oppose and ridicule them.

“Commercial reseeding” in the 1960’s? Hey, that long before “Earth Day” and the growth of the environmental wacko movements.

Some logging companies long ago saw the need for reseeding/reforestation as a smart process to ensure the growth of forests and having available wood to build homes with.

At least this organization is using some common sense to preserving the Redwoods. I guess they will now be sued by the Sierra Club, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and Friends of the Earth./

No good or smart deed goes unpunished by the Marxist Left.

I can’t wait for the treehuggers to break out the chain-ourselves-to-the-trees chains and drums. Enviros versus owlpeople. Popcorn, definitely.

A few hundred second and third growth Redwood trees out our back door...
