Timber Buyer Training Day One: Filling Out Timber Contracts.

Today we would like to put a spot light, that is well deserved, on an unknown individual who decided to protest at one of our logging jobs located in McBee, SC. If you can read it clearly the sign says “Protect Our Environment”.

Let it be known, everyone in the timber industry makes a vow to protect our environment. The forest environment provides us the area to be able to make a living at what we do. Would we want to destroy the environment that provides for our way of living. No, definitely not.

There is nothing wrong with this protester other than the fact that they are highly uneducated and simple minded about the practice of Forestry.

Forestry is a renewable resource and has always and will always be a renewable resource. Many of the tracts of land with trees on it that you ride by have been harvested and has been either regenerated back artificially or naturally to its present state.

People in the forestry industry love trees and the environment they grow in. Why on Earth would someone want to destroy the very same thing that provides in taking care of their families? The simple answer, they don’t and never will. Our future is strictly dependent on the future of a forest.

If this particular protestor really wanted to make a statement then I would challenge them to go to a forest that has been cleared and paved in order to build a retail store or some other type of public place. That is the definition of destroying a forest. Areas like that will never be a forest again and people like this fail to see that aspect of it.

Our goal in this industry is to manage and grow timber. I would venture to say, this protester has never done any research on the forest industry in our state. If they did, they would realize that our state is growing more trees now, even with decreasing forest land for rural use, than there ever has been before. The goal of forestry is to take an area of forest that isn’t growing a lot of trees per acre into an area that will be.

The forest is our future, and our future industry set depends on managing and protecting our environment. Thank you to this protestor for allowing an opportunity to educate hopefully yourself and the people on our wonderful forestry industry.
