#Industrial #logging is one of the country's biggest #climate #polluters with more than 10 per cent of #Canada ’s total planet-heating #emissions .
This is according to an #analysis of the #NationalInventoryReport produced by both #NatureCanada & #NaturalResourcesDefenseCouncil #NRDC - #American #environmental #advocacy group.

Belated #ThickTrunkTuesday entry.
This #ancient red #cedar is close to 500 yrs old. It's one of the last remaining #OldGrowth cedars within #CRD area on South #VancouverIsland & we need rest of unprotected #AncientForests protected for perpetuity.

#Treeplanting — the main so-called #NatureBased solution intended to help #DrawDown #CarbonDioxide from the atmosphere has become a synonym for #ClimateAction . #Governments & #companies make #forestry #promises that spring up like eager saplings. That’s become a convenient way to assuage #consumer & #corporate #guilt ..
#Trees are wonderful, but they’re not a #QuickSolution to the #ClimateCrisis

A series of ancient #landslides have been "reawakened" in #BritishColumbia #Cariboo region, according to the #BCgovernment costing hundreds of millions in federal #disaster #AssistanceFunds .
While the #BCNDP links the reactivation of the slides to #ClimateChange - #experts #warn the problem is #connected to #logging in the area.

The world is #losing 10 million hectares of #forest each year due to #deforestation – about the size of #Iceland , Europe´s second biggest island. In addition, insects damage around 35 million hectares of forest annually. This is extremely serious, not least given the fact that forests are key to combating #ClimateXhange . 21 March is the #InternationalDayOfForests.

I'm a proud longtime #treehugger - I love trees more than most humans.
There's incredible #magical #pure #natural #energy in #forests - especially #AncientForests w/many #OldGrowth #trees still standing. It should be criminal to cut down #ElderTrees ✊

The #BCgovernment has been roundly applauded for removing a key word from the #provincial #regulations governing #forest planning.
For two decades the word “#unduly ” has #limited the #protection of so-called “#NonTimber ” values in #BCForests . #Wildlife #habitat , #soil , #biodiversity & even drinking #water could only be protected if it did not “unduly reduce the supply of timber from #BritishColumbia .”

#GlobalStudy led by #UniversityOfBristol revealed #CarbonSink #vulnerability of #recovering forests. #Tropical #forests are #vital in the fight against #ClimateChange & have great #potential as a carbon sink. However, new #data shows that new tropical #deforestation & forest #degradation are #outstripping rates of forest #regrowth .

Thanks to #GoogleEarth Engine, people are able to see the #effects of #humans on our #ecosystems happen in a flash.
On #VancouverIsland specifically, it’s easy to see the #deforestation of #FairyCreek near #PortRenfrew as well as several other locations.

#KPMG became a #global sustainability leader while serving companies accused of #forest #destruction .
The firm vouched for an #Indonesian company with a #SupplyChain beset by #deforestation allegations and a project in #Canada that led to an #Indigenous forest’s “#death by a thousand cuts”

Mosaic continues to log on #QuadraIsland & this #logging is in areas #recommended for #protection by TAP. #SierraQuadra has been trying, with little success, to #negotiate for #deferral of logging in these areas & for eventual protection of these #valuable #forest stands for #ecological , #environmental & #carbon #sequestration purposes.

There are clearcuts in this photo too. Back in early 90s - those mountains were still full of old growth forests. Now, there's maybe 50 lone old growth trees left. They're currently clearcutting a lot more of last remaining old growth forests & using heli-logging for their greedy ecocidal work.

There's a raven's nest way up there but you can't see it from this shot. This is in one of the areas I used to patrol & do fish monitoring at.
