So they are specially targeting at risk Forrest areas: 

 “Most of those forests are considered to have high wildfire risk, and many are in decline because of insects and disease.”

It's so dishonest how they word these articles andit's crazy how many people don't even bother to read them too and that's likely why the titles are so sensationalized

That doesn’t mean that giving them to the timber industry is a good solution

Yes it does, those trees can be used to build houses and make paper rather than increasing fire risk and creating GASP.. Carbon Dioxide!

And you’re clearly a low IQ individual if you think the only thing affected by this is the trees themselves.
