Many of those mountains you see here have massive bald spots from gross clearcut logging now. Hurt my nature loving heart to see the damages recently.

Tons more #ecocide #deforestation here - lots of places I saw forested on my last trip to this area over a decade ago have been fully clearcut since. It's heartbreaking.

PS. Just saw this. A pulp mill a few hours north of #PortAlberni in #PortAlice began to be demolished on Wednesday.

It’s a symbolic moment for what is happening in Forestry across British Columbia. We must find a different way of using, working in, and sustaining, our forests.
