This is the complete opposite of green. We need to keep forests to keep the planet cool, not industrial-scale solar which doesn't even work well on cloudy days.

And so much of this is probably going to power AI which we definitely don't need.

I'm currently awaiting the result of a public enquiry into a hideous ripping out of 40 acres of the forest I live in to create a solar park 🤯
I've spent so much time opposing this. Monitoring bats, amphibians, birds... so many red list species 😢
Classic eg of #ecocide and utter #greenwashing 🖤

There was a webinar hosted by Conservation North a couple of days ago featuring two forest biologists and a retired forester who outline why active management imperils forest resilience.

This is a very interesting article but unfortunately plays right into the hands of logging companies who are looking for an excuse to log. Scientists have found that fuel reduction increases the intensity of wildfires as it dries out the forest.

This is a myth propagated by the logging industry and is just an excuse to log. Fuel reduction exposes the forest floor to the drying effects of sun and wind and increases the intensity of wildfires.

Please see what the scientists have found.

The Park Board is logging Stanley Park of its hemlocks and some cedars. Most of it unnecessary as these trees are mostly sound and it's drying out the forest floor. How will the replacement of native Coastal Western Hemlocks with industrially-raised seedlings affect insect species in Stanley Park?

Yes, they are logging hemlocks without doing proper Wildlife/Dangerous Tree assessments on them. They are also cutting down some cedars. It is not necessary as most are sound and not rotten. This logging is contributing to blowdowns and is causing the forest to dry out.
