6/ I disagree with this. First: again, note that trees have finite lifespans. Choice: log or allow to fall and rot. Second: you either quantify or you don't. If you don't, you make bad decisions that destroy value.https://twitter.com/meta_nomad/status/1397877609250308097 …

Irregardless @AxisofOptionsReplying to @MorlockPI’ve cut a lot of trees down in my arborist career. I always pray to God before each tree. That the wood may heat someone’s home. That the wood may become shelter. That the paper may become a book to transmit knowledge. That the surrounding trees flourish and thrive.1 reply 0 retweets 22 likesShow this thread -

11/ yeah, there's no way to put a log on a boat where it can be brought to a sawmill that will convert it into $150,000 of high grade lumber; the only option is to chip it locally to create $500 of firewood pelletshttps://twitter.com/faisal_moola/status/1397722987596558338 …

Dr. Faisal Moola @faisal_moolaActually considering that there are no more saw mills in Vancouver Island that can process old growth trees of this size, this giant & others like it are probably going to be turned into wood pellets or exported as raw logs overseas - along with any jobs claimed by BC governmentShow this thread1 reply 0 retweets 24 likesShow this thread -

12/ 1) trees have a finite lifespan; this keeps being skipped over 2) your subjective appreciation IS an acknowledgement of value 3) if we don't quanitify than we make decisions at random / via intuition (and thus they are likely bad decisions)https://twitter.com/meta_nomad/status/1397879370048475145 …

13/ > , my subjective appreciation of that tree alive and standing will always override it as some table. yet you are not purchasing live trees to protect them from logging, so via principle of revealed preference, no, you don't actually care enough to override the table option

14/ OK, but this comes back to revealed preferences. You could do a job that's less fun and generates more income which you could use to "appreciate nature". Or you could run a podcast and say that other people should do X. >>> https://twitter.com/meta_nomad/status/1397880540481662983 …
