My son, Joe Jr. writing about forestry, This is what we teach Canadian kids at school here :-)
WHAT’S GOOD? WHAT’S BAD?
Forestry has good things and bad things to it. In other words, it has
pros and cons. Sadly, there are more cons. That is one of the cons.
Plus, every pro has a con to it. There’s another con! Here are two
examples: A pro to forestry is that when we cut down trees we can use
the wood to build homes for us. But to do that, we have to destroy the
animal’s homes and habitats. Another pro is we can build our machines
and furniture with the lumber. A con to that is the processing will
pollute the environment. So as you saw in these two examples, forestry
is the most useful industry, but it might be the most destructive.
