>>>create employment in forestry areas
My take on this is that the biggest obstacle to stopping logging of old
growth forests is the employment it generates. If alternative jobs can
be provided for forestry workers in the areas they live in, then the
logging idustry doesn't have a leg to stand on. All timber can be
provided by plantations.
