Every year, forest fires and severe storms cause a great deal of damage to forests in the northwestern United States. One way of dealing with the aftermath of these disasters is called salvage logging, which is the practice of removing dead trees from affected areas and using the wood for lumber, plywood, and other wood products. There are several reasons why salvage logging is beneficial both to a damaged forest and to the economy.
First, after a devastating fire, forests are choked with dead trees. If the trees are not removed, they will take years to decompose; in the meantime, no new trees can grow in the cramped spaces. Salvage logging, however, removes the remains of dead trees and makes room for fresh growth immediately, which is likely to help forest areas recover from the disaster.
Also, dead trees do more than just take up space. Decaying wood is a highly suitable habitat for insects such as the spruce bark beetle, which in large numbers can damage live, healthy spruce trees. So by removing rotting wood, salvage logging helps minimize the dangers of insect infestation, thus contributing to the health of the forest.
Third and last, salvage logging has economic benefits. Many industries depend upon the forests for their production, and because of this a fire can have a very harmful effect on the economy. Often, however, the trees that have been damaged by natural disasters still can provide much wood that is usable by industries. Furthermore, salvage logging requires more workers than traditional logging operations do, and so it helps create additional jobs for local residents.
The atricle and thr lecture are both about dead trees after damage forest by fire. The author of the reading feels that salvage logging want to remove from effected area. The lecturer challenges the claims made by the author. The lecturer thinks that no need to remove dead trees in effected area.
First of all, the author argues that if not removed dead trees which will take many years to decompose. Therefore nrew trees are couldn't grow in that area. The article is mentioned that removing dead trees make fresh area to recover from the disaster. This point is challenged by the lecturer. He claims that decompose the dead trees make rich soil and it is advantage for new growing trees. Furethermore, he says that it help to increase soil nitrutents for newly growing trees.
Secondly, the authour suggest that large number of insects making habitat in dead trees and they harmful effect to economy. The article notes that these insects damged living healthy spruce trees such as bark beetles. The lecturer rebuts this argument. He suggest these insect are ot harmful to economy. He elaborates on this by mentioning that normally these type of insects are live in the frorests.
Finally, the author states that trees have been damaged can provide as wood for industries. Moreover,the article says that it can provide more jobs for local residents. In contrast, the lecturer's position is that it provide very small effect and not long perpouse process.It will be give short term tempary jobs. He elaborates on this by mentioning that when get more workers means expensive and reduce the benifit.
