TPO 14
The lecture and the reading discuss positive and drawback aspects of salvage logging. Although the passage claims that salvage logging has several metric points, the speaker refutes this idea through several reasons which I will describe in this reporter.
First and foremost, the passage points out that by removing dead trees, new trees will be able to grow in free spaces. The lecturer, in contrast, rejects this by claiming that cleaning forest after storm or fire is not necessary. After the dead trees are discomposed, many nutrition comes to the soil, and the soil becomes rich. Hence, new trees can grow in the forest. But, if dead trees are removed, the forest's soil would not become rich.
Furthermore, unlike the passage which states that dead trees are a suitable place for insects to grow, and they will cause damage to healthy trees. However, the professor argues that dead trees can increase insects, but it is not mean they will damage other trees. For example, space bark beetle lived in the Alaska forest for the 1000 year without cause damage. She says that dead trees are suitable habitat for birds and other insects. Thus, salvage logging may be more harmful to forest ecosystem in long term periods.
Finally, although the passage says that salvage logging could provide wood for industries, and create additional job opportunities for locals. The speaker disagrees by mentioning that people remove dead trees from the forest by helicopters. Using helicopters is not economic so that it is so expensive. She adds that using dead trees create contemporary jobs, and sometimes outsiders with special abilities are used in salvage logging than the locals. Subsequently, it does not have the economic benefits that the passage claims.
