    Die Abholzung der Wälder ist nicht zu Ende, aber sie findet nicht mehr überall statt.

      I love what conservation efforts have done in America. God bless you, Teddy Roosevelt. We need more presidents like you.

      Looking at the Amazon getting deforested makes me so sad, though.

      For a summer job in Canada, that turned into a career, I planted over 1.3 million trees over 10 years. Glad it helped.

      It’s infuriating knowing that people in my country see clearing forests to make soybean fields and cow grassland as progress. I don’t see progress at all, just hotter days

      To put in perspective how intensive deforestion can be.

      Warships in the 1700s could take over 5000 mature Oak tree for a single ship, each of the trees can take up to a 100 years to grow mature enough.

      Now imagine an entire fleet, countries and other industries also exist.

      Some countries like Denmark made heavy restriction on deforestation as almost all their forest was gone to just 1-2% of the land area.

      Access to cooking fuels helps prevent deforestation. In America before 1900 you basically had to cut down trees to cook your food and heat your home. With the invention of electric and gas cooking and heating people don’t have to destroy their ecosystem to make dinner. It also helps emancipate women who are often tasked with finding fuel.

      Deforestation is such a generalized term, if you plant a monoculture tree farm it’s technically not deforested but arguably worse. Even if regrown with diversity second growth forests are nowhere near the same as old growth. Nearly all of the northeast u.s was clear cut in the 1800s and the ecosystem is still not the same as it was.
