We will trees for lumber. This isn't cynical at all.
Edit: idk if I meant kill trees or will cut trees lol.
No, you'll trees.
You don't need to axe murder the tree to get leaves. I expect it to be more economically sustainable to keep your tree alive.
Lumber is the body, so not killing the tree is kinda off the table.
There are old methods of getting lumber from trees by cutting them short and letting the limbs grow back. The Japanese “daisugi” and European “copsing” are two different styles of the same idea. The fact that we don’t see those done much in the modern era makes me think that the industrial-capitalist mind would not comprehend the idea of waiting for leaves to fall.
More likely, daisugi/copsing just doesn't yield enough to meet demand.
But leaves are suuuuuuuper valuable now.
