To take care of the trees is business

Against the economic excuses for talar and to destroy the trees, in fact they produce more money if you the preserve!

A studio quantified the value of the forests, demonstrating that they can be worth ten times more if you use them to him as recreational field, as habitat of the species and to maintain the quality of the water that if you the pruning to obtain wood, you dedicate them to grass or they are carried out in them mining works.

As consultant ECONorthwest affirmed, the forests of United States are worth 234.000 million dollars and they generate 2,9 million employments starting from the leisure, fish and wild-type fauna, waters and wild-type fields.

In comparison, those approximately 80 million hectares of federal forests generate 23.000 million dollars and 407.000 employments starting from the mining, the wood and the shepherding.

The report only counted the direct revenues that are dispensed in only 2,7% for the wood in front of 84,6% coming from your recreational uses and of the habits of fish and fauna.

With the result that one can affirm that to leave the trees just as they are, you contribute much more to the local and national economies that to cut them.
