salvage logging
The provided material are concerned with the salvage logging which is the process of removing dead trees after disasters such as forest fires or storms. The author states that salvage logging is beneficial for both damaged forests and the economy. In contrast, the lecturer repudiates this point through several counterarguments that are as follows.
Initially, the author says that trees decomposition takes some years and salvage logging can facilitate the process of growing a new tree in a short time. However, the lecturer explains that the natural process of decomposition enriches the soil. Actually, due to the rapid removal of trees, the soil is bereft of nutrients.
Second, the writer thinks that some inspect such as spruce bark beetle perils trees healthy and the salvage logging process minimizes their danger by removing rotting wood. Yet again, the speaker underscores that spruce beetles have been living in forests for many years and have never caused any bad damages. The salvage logging practice causes more harm to forests than beetles.
The final contention between the article and lecture is the economical aspects of salvage logging. The author says that this process can provide much wood for industries that depend on wood. Also, it helps create additional jobs for local residents. On the other hand, the speaker explains that the salvage logging process is not an economical process. To use this practice, they should use some instruments or machines such as helicopters that are costly to maintain. The jobs that provide by this process are temporary and can not count as a good effect of salvage logging.
