Vancouver forestry enthusiasts take note! Check out 'Silvicola' at @DOXAFestival this Sunday at 8pm.
Looking forward to checking out Jean-Philippe Marquis' Silvicola doc at @DOXAFestival this Sunday at 8pm at Vancity Theatre. Looks like a beautifully shot meditation on the complex tensions between humans, machines and the forests of the Pacific Northwest. https://t.co/Ggk6gKTwEg

Heartwood director Daniel Pierce unpacks what has truly unfolded in the woods of BC since the pine beetle wiped our half of the mature pine forests in the Interior. As he lays out, this wasn't a natural disaster, it was a manmade one. Or what the kids call a "self-own". A thread.
The dishonesty on display here from David Elstone of @truckloggerBC is off the charts. First off, the idea the pine beetle outbreak was a natural disaster is totally wrong. That was a manmade disaster. A thread... https://t.co/SXBUmK4MCb

It's always fun looking back at old reports and studies from #BCForestry that predict with striking prescience exactly the situation we'd be in today if we continued on the path we were on. And yet, here we are.
The degree to which the Ministry of Forests ignores its own science is unbelievable. Here are some excerpts from an MOF sanctioned report from *1990* about the impacts of logging on soil stability. We're seeing these effects all across BC. They knew this would happen. #BCForestry

Arguments have wrapped for Nuchatlaht Nation's title case, but they're still fundraising for legal costs. Please donate what you can and help them cover the cost of taking the BC government to court to get their #landback. Just $750 to reach their goal! https://t.co/c0ceW6ubQ5

Arguments for the Nuchatlaht Nation's title case against the BC government have ended. Now they must play the waiting game. In the meantime, they are just $1,000 away from their funding goal. Please donate if you can and help them with their legal costs. https://t.co/c0ceW6ubQ5

“From a logging point of view, you want to spend the least amount of money for the road that will provide you sufficient access to your last load of logs. The best road is the road that falls apart after you get your last load of logs out.” @TheTyee

Experts say government must act now to avoid preventable landslide and flood deaths and damage. The problems go beyond climate change.

Excited to share my Water Logged short doc on @Seeker. The film is about the Grand Forks floods and the connection to #clearcutting in the #watershed. Seeker has a massive following so this will certainly help get the word out to a wider audience. #forests

New landslide on Highway 99 in a giant clear-cut on a steep slope triggered by a washed out logging road. Apparently BC's so-called "science-based approach to reforestation" isn't working in preventing floods and landslides.
New landslide on highway 99. See guys if we didn’t have clearcuts we wouldn’t have all that government revenue to pay for things like repairing landslides.
