Used to drive a truck for a living. Drove past all sorts of stinky paper plants. One time I picked up at RR Donnelly in Oregon (the company that prints the Yellow Pages). Made the comment that I was supprised Liberal Oregon still allowed you to operate in their state. He said there is more forested land in the US now than there was at the beginning of the 20th century. Also picked up once at their facility in Nevada. The Yellow Pages were headed to Mexico. Go figure. You learn interesting things when driving

[@juanc.9735]

Used to drive a semi as well🫡. Remember going to those companies that strictly prohibit the use of cameras in their facilities? Once I took a pic of one of those 100% autonomous self driving “forklift/transporter/paletizing robots” just cause I thought they were cool but I had a robocop security right behind me asking me to erase it😬. I didn’t mind it cause he then pointed out the sign to me. But I understand why now. I’ve heard stories of a foreign visitor getting a tour of a company using proprietary equipment, but not so coincidentally, a few months later that same job was now being outsourced to a Chinese company doing it for a lot cheaper. Stolen💡, basically. So yeah u do learn (& hear) a lot as a truck driver.

Apparently, there was a metal track or something buried under the concrete floor of the warehouse they would follow.

[@juanc.9735]

@@Electrichead64 I agree them not being the greatest & the latest, they just happened to be what prompted me to take the pic. The proprietary tech was probably on their other production machinery.

“Why does [Name of Town With Paper Mill] smell so bad?” “So the blind people can hate it too.” Oregon is still a massive lumber producer. Much of the state’s forests are third or fourth growth. There is a lot of information on the problems of loss of biodiversity in stands of trees that have been replanted for lumber, paper and other commercial uses.

[@amadeuz819]

Its true, you can hear the difference in a planted forest and a wild one. Like in a planted one you don't have rotting trees so a lot less insects and places for small animals to live, there are a lot less berries and mushrooms in a planted one and there is really no diversity. It almost feels like a "dead forest", all the swamps has been drained and living things do need water. Of course some species can live there and some mushrooms grow there but don't think its the same. Like your soul doesn't recharge even in a planted forest in the same way as in a wild one, you can sense the difference in em. I know some forest owners keep pockets with wild forest to try to balance our need for lumber but when the clear cuts happen there is no cure for the devastation it has on the life in that area. Maybe if we only harvested every 5th row every 8th year then it would not be as damaging as clear cutting the whole area every 40th year. Maybe having different types of trees in the rows so that there is diversity and maybe not dig the ditches to maximize the areas production, instead grow around them. Like all we really need is for the machines to be able to harvest in an effective way so if one row aint enough then take 2 every 8th year and have 10 rows. Like there has to be a better solution than clear cutting and digging ditches to drain all natural water holders. Its not even only the area that is clear cut that suffers, the forest around that area will also dry up when the wind is able to blow there and the sun is able to create a "sauna" in the clear cut area so its a bit like a hairdryer. We know better and we can do better, even I use wood as heat source but never yet done a clear cut and always only taking out trees that are dangerous or blocking the others or just in the wrong place(I know my use aint industrial level but I know there is a better way if we just sat down and planned a bit).

[@Freesavh1776]

The Tabasco Company is a company that makes me proud to be an American. They have kept it local, cared for the land that helped it make it what it is. They've helped to keep locals employed. Are they a perfect company, no of course not. But they are a good bit better than most. And the more & more fuss made about the living wage & higher minimum wage is going to push companies to automation. And McDonald's disastrous AI experiment in Commiefornia showed they are willing to go auto even if the tech isn't all the way there yet. And yes the cost of living has grown so fast. The thing is, wages stopped trying to keep up with the cost of living a very long time ago. I don't know what would be the best solutions for this problem. But raising hell about it in the streets, & holding companies feet to the fire about it is not the right way. You get what happened Commiefornia. People losing jobs & hours being cut. Then tech coming in & replacing the human worker that has a family to provide for.

Old growth trees store huge amounts of our of carbon And of that, the world's largest and oldest trees are estimated to store a whopping 50% of all the aboveground carbon. But when old trees are cut down, they release their stores of carbon right back into the atmosphere. Thats just a copy paste, but I think when most people imagine a forest being wiped out they can make themselves feel better because its "sustainable" The oldest tree still standing is 48 hundred years old, there are trees that are still alive now that wolly mammoths have touched and these trees take hundreds of years to grow

[@amadeuz819]

Clear cutting and replanting one type of tree is VERY NEGATIVE! VERY! but lumber is also a renewable source so its better than plastic and for industrial production you have to plant the type of tree that gives the most lumber. Still its VERY NEGATIVE, a mixed forest is the healthy good version where you only take out a few trees but that again costs a lot more and grows slower.
