Yeah, it’s insane. The belief is still around that if you care about the environment at all that makes you some kind of leftist political revolutionary/hippie. But to me it just means you have an iota of foresight.

Cutting down forests without looking strongly toward the consequences of that is just fucking stupid and pathetic. The US has practically zero old growth forests. Changing the makeup of the forest has fucked, and will fuck, with the ecosystem, which we are not apart from. It affects us eventually. In ways we cannot predict. It’s a moronic move and it will harm future generations of humans, if not the current ones.
