MessageIt's not our money that would used, but that's not the point. How would we clear land for farms or any development if we are planting more trees every time we cut them down.

MessageWe think that although the idea is a good one, planting at higher than replacement level would actually cause higher competition among trees for sunlight and nutrients, so the environment might actually be harmed. (OOC: I just sounded like a textbook.)

MessageHigher replacement level means, somewhere else in Aldegar will be replaced more trees than have been cut down f.e. for a new industrial facility...

ToDebating the Tree Replanting Act
MessageIf the other party leaders remember, that the industrialization of Aldegar has harmed nature (especially forests) and that modern mass production and consumer society are great threats to nature, there is no reason to vote against it.

We have to support the gradual regeneration of Aldegars nature on behalf of our people!
