This is coniferous strip cutting in Canada...Why? Because lumber supply companies are greedy and there is a constant demand for lumber. but luckily this is only strip cutting, not clear cutting. The consequenses are not that big compared to clear cutting, the animals still have areas to migrate to and there is shade and the other trees can seed the area that was cut. A more sustainable way to cut forests would be selective cutting, everywhere, but that is alot more expensive. Lumber is money.
