Both the reading and the lecture talk about the effects of salvage logging, a process of removing dead trees after fire or storm in forests. Although the author claims that this method is advantageous for the economy, the lecturer finds all reasons dubious and provides three counter reasons to refute them all.
First, the reading states that salvage logging increases the speed of tree growth after a disaster and makes space for more fresh trees. However, the lecturer asserts that cleaning up the forest doesn't help trees to growth and it prevents trees form getting nutrition attained by natural process of decomposition. Since decomposition of dead trees adds plenty amount of necessary substances, the salvage logging causes the soil to lack of needed materials.
Second, the reading explains that the salvage logging reduces the insect infestation and prevents rotting tree wood. On the other hand, the lecturer refuses this idea by stating that insects have been present for almost a hundred years nearby these trees and they didn't have serious damages. She explains that not only insects, but also birds have contributed the health of the forest in long term. Thus, the possible damages by these organisms are much more by salvage logging method.
Third, the reading claims that salvage logging provides opportunities for both economy improvement and job for local settlements. In contrast, the lecturer opposes this idea, suggesting that salvage logging has a tiny role in economy as in severe conditions, the collecting trees is possible just by exploiting special vehicles namely helicopters. Besides, the jobs available in these areas are temporary and not long-lasting and skillful workers are only selected from outside of the area for such jobs, not the local resident. Thus, the idea of job providing is not true for this method.
