RE: THE REDUCTION OF OUR FORESTS IN CANADA
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dear Mr. Wildmen:
|
|
|
|
I, xxx, am a student at Northern Secondary School here in
|
|
Toronto. Being a citizen of Ontario, I have many concerns on mind with the
|
|
forestry industries in Canada.
|
|
|
|
In the December 28, 1987 issue of the Globe & Mail, an article, People
|
|
In B.C. Logging Town Fear Riches Running Out stated that in British
|
|
Columbia, MacMillan Bloedel Ltd. destroys twenty square kilometers of rain
|
|
forest every year in the Queen Charlotte Islands, and sells it for a
|
|
hundred million dollars. This logging company employs a third of the
|
|
island's work force of 1,500 people. This is just one company in Canada
|
|
which helps limiting our forests. There are many other corporations that
|
|
contribute in the mass enterprise. These corporations cause large clear
|
|
cuts in Canada today that would have been all forests some years ago.
|
|
|
|
It is well known that the decrements of the forests will leave us
|
|
without trees in the next few decades. It will also cause many wildlife
|
|
species to find a new environment to live and may cause climatical changes.
|
|
However, if we decide not to cut trees, our economy will suffer greatly due
|
|
to the many job losses. If we decide to continue with the cutting of
|
|
trees, our economy will still suffer in the near future--where all jobs
|
|
will still be lost because there will not be any trees to cut! Therefore,
|
|
both these decisions will leave us with an extreme upset.
|
|
|
|
Now, with new technological advancements, we have learned how to make
|
|
our forests grow forty percent faster with forest replantation. This may
|
|
help us to keep our forests living for a extended duration, but it does not
|
|
satisfy wildlife. Forest replantation actually gives off harmful chemicals
|
|
to other species and the killing of these species will alter our economy
|
|
also.
|
|
|
|
We cannot terminate nor endorse the cutting of our forests. Our
|
|
alternative is to enhance the system of forest replantation. More money and
|
|
support should be put towards this method of saving our forests. We need
|
|
more studies to be done with this system to strengthen it and try ridding
|
|
it of its drawbacks.
|
|
|
|
Forest industries must be forced to financially assist and use the
|
|
forest replantation system. They must be able to afford the assistance
|
|
with all the money they have profited in previous years, but they are just
|
|
too selfish to do so. We should come upon a law in which every tree that
|
|
is cut down, at least two are replanted successfully so we may be able to
|
|
gain the large stock of forests which we had many years ago. This may slow
|
|
our economy down, but at least it will not destroy it--and there may be a
|
|
possibility (if everbody co-operatives) that we can gain the large forests
|
|
that we had many years ago.
|
|
|
|
There is much we can do, but all must be co-operative and willing. If
|
|
no such actions are taken seriously, I cannot imagine what our lives will
|
|
be like in the future.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yours Truly,
|
|
