Forest Logging Policy Triggers Bitter Debate

Douglas McIntyre and David Callaway, Editors-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, discussed the Trump administration’s decision to open 280 million acres of forest to unregulated logging. The administration’s argument for timber independence comes amid tariffs on Canadian timber. While some believe forest protections may be overly restrictive, environmentalists warn that this move could lead to increased wildfires and the destruction of critical ecosystems. The broader implications of this decision, along with other environmental policy changes, remain uncertain.
