It can clearly be seen on Google maps satellite. Europe was once covered in oak forests. Look at it now. Look at the Western half of Kentucky, as another small example. Look at how much of the Amazon rainforest has been cut down to make coffee farms. Much of New England was once clear cut, it has been able to heal only because the practice has greatly diminished, and because the eastern American forests are particularly quick to regenerate.
I could go on and on. The link you posted refers to responsible logging practices that do not result in deforestation, but are also not universally practiced. Deforestation is real and is occurring today. You cannot deny what can clearly be seen.
I did, and I commented on it. To repeat: "The link you posted refers to responsible logging practices that do not result in deforestation, but are also not universally practiced."
IIN that Google maps satellite has caused me to hate the human race?

I was specifically talking about deforestation. That humans have caused unprecedented deforestation is undeniable, and very saddening to me.

You need to learn what is the truth about "deforestation" and what is just political hype used to stir people into hatred.

if it mattes to you then, you should perhaps take that as your call to life. to make sure logging rules are practiced.
condemming the entire human race however is a bit like throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

I'll just shoot anyone I see logging where I live. The rest of the world can sink into the ocean.
