Forum Discussion
The National Forests have been underharvested for the last 30 years. That is the biggest reason we have megafires we can't control.
We have had problems competing with the Canadians when it comes to wood products, because their government subsidizes the industry.
The US has been a net importer of wood products for almost 50 years.
Wood is carbon neutral. It is renewable and sustainable. Most other resources aren't. We need a lot more logging and we are likely to get it.
The next jump in wood technology is the use of timbers for high rise buildings. Wood is already used for hundreds of products besides lumber, plywood and OSB. This trend will continue.
