Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they case doubt on specific points made in the reading passage.
The article explains about a topic called salvage logging and provides three reasons to support the idea. However, the professor explains that salvage logging can be a great threat to the environment of forest and refutes each of the author's reason.
First, the reading claims that after a devastating fire, forests are choked with dead trees and this trees will take years to decompose. So, removing this dead tree will make a room for fresh growth. The professor refutes this point by saying that decomposing dead trees are so much beneficial for their future generation. When a dead tree decomposes, the soil of forest get nutrients and necessary elements which makes the soil more fertile. So, cleaning up dead trees after a disaster is not a good idea.
Second, the article posits that decaying wood is a highly suitable habitat for insects which is very harmful for the other trees. On the the hand, the professor claims that dead trees are not only suitable habitat for harmful insects but also for helpful insects and birds. This birds and insects plays an important role for the sound environment in the forest.
Third, the reading says that this salvage logging can be beneficial to the economy of the country and it will create more jobs. On the contrast, the professor opposes this point by explaining that this procedure is so much expensive and sometimes they may have to use helicopter for this. Furthermore, it will create only temporary jobs because devastating fires and severe storms will not happen all the time.
