| Message | Why do we require forestry operations to do more than their fair share of maintaining the forests? Surely it is enough that they replace the forests they remove? Remember, replacement levels are not just planting one tree for each one cut down. It is the level of planting at which a forest will retain its size and composition. Having a level higher than that will expand forests. |

| Message | You really sound like a broken record, JDW, always talking about "clearcuts". This nation has been managing it's forest land far before your party was even conceived. Forests are an important natural resource, that will always be managed to ensure they continue to exist. |
