We’ve had our differences — but we’re behind you now.
That’s the message in a resolution adopted by the diverse group of environmentalists, loggers and local officials supporting the U.S. Forest Service’s controversial choice of a private contractor to launch the landmark 4-Forest Restoration Initiative.
The resolution by the 4FRI Stakeholder’s Group acknowledged the “concerns” expressed about relying on Pioneer Forest Products to thin 300,000 acres of overgrown forest in the next 10 years. However, the group concluded it is “committed to working constructively with existing and emerging industries, the Forest Service, and other interested parties to achieve our shared goals of economic sustainability, community protection and ecological restoration.”
No one seems to understand forest biology anymore. Resources are all agenda driven by people doing studies to prove their point of view only. Let the Parks all burn because “it’s natural”. Good luck with that…. Welcome to climate change….
