My first post on Imgur.
Took this picture last weekend. I guess seeing it on the field had a different effect.
What I didn't know about Imgur is once you post something - you get negative score when refreshing image LoL. For which I earned negative score and the "Forever Alone" promotion. :))

Where I grew up trees were harvested as a crop, they grew them, cut them down, made paper, then replanted and waited to repeat the process.

Well - we do that too but crops do not have time to refurnish. So in order to meet the demand, they keep expanding the cutting zones.
Meanwhile, I think that huge tree was spared. Alone in the field, it probably attracted lightning. Then during the burning, a large piece fell and got hooked on lower branches.
It's hard to tell from the picture but the "human shape" part is huge. At least 20ft tall. It was surreal to look at.

Not using paper products has the same affect going vegan has on the meat industry.
The best you can do is recycle until the planet gets it's **** together and goes paperless. But then again we'll all be ****ed when inevitably all that data is lost and people realize the importance of physical backups.

That's incredibly common today. I like in a huge paper-making area and I know a few companies around here that definitely do that. The others I'm just not sure about.

Well you can go paperless but they still rape the earth to get the minerals to make the device you view the paperless documents on.
Population growth is the earth's biggest problem right now IMHO.

Also, extremes are stupid. Why not just be smarter about using resources of all kind? Why do we have to completely abandon paper, an incredibly useful medium for saving and sharing information? Also, it won't happen anytime soon anyway (and shouldn't), so why even get worked up about it?

Meanwhile I bought myself a boogie board. Filled with all kind of toxic components but saves 50 000 sheet according to the ads.
