Stephen Samuel's "proof" that we are running out of trees relies on anecdotal "evidence" that we only have 4 years left of 2nd growth and 15 years left of old growth ---- yet, he agrees that the Clayoquot has at least 80 years worth of cutting. Most of the figures I have seen, claim that a 30% cut in the cutting rate over 30 years should get BC back on track -- ie cut 10% in the next 10 years, another 10% in the 10 years after that etc. How can one reconcile Mr Samuels doom and gloom, with other figures? The answer is --one can't. There is no point in arguing with a fanatic -- especially one who supports the GreenPeace attempt to kill off the BC forest industry. Bye PS If GreenPeace succeeds, be prepared to emigrate.
