Environmental Politics

The voting is over and none of the timber initiatives won. Now can we stop cutting trees down at such a demonic rate?
I know of people on both sides of the issue: timber industry workers, environmental activists and everyone in between, all of whom agree that we need to stop logging the watersheds and endangered species habitats. Timber harvest plans are rubber-stamped without site inspections or study of any kind.
Can’t we stop the name-calling and all get together now to agree on a safe and sane timber policy? For all of our sakes, let’s not let big money (timber company executives) continue to rape the Earth.
