but you are the hero our country needs. why dont you lead by example and do something about it instead of posting online?
>>70535807
USA also grew quite a bit
I want to believe this is just pre-teens acting like retards on the internet who don't understand the concept of what a false-color photograph is, but after this many years of SJW shit, they're probably college grads. The Jew has successfully set our collective intellect back to the level of 13th century French turnip farmers.
i would bet that's summer vs winter and not deforestation

Jej, more trees in America now than when Jamestown was founded
>>70536199
And of course the eastern US is mostly farmland. Deforestation isn't an issue in America

educate yourselves
>>70536345
well yes, but they are much smaller trees now, so it would be interesting to see a comparison In the estimated biomass of the trees then vs now.

These photos are colorized by NASA. They're basically just artist depictions, they aren't reflections of what the planet actually looks like

>>70536552
makes sense
>>70536552
and in case it's not clear from my post, the claim made on tumblr is a complete lie, NASA never released these images as "evidence of deforestation" or many any such claims
>>70536759

>13th century French turnip farmers
13th century French farmers didn't have photography bu they had been red pilled as fuck by crushing the Cathar heresy. We are falling back to pre-classical antiquity standards.

EVERY FUCKING YEAR i hear about raging wildfires because some fucking retard camper decided to do a barbeque in the middle of the forest
>>70535807
These people don't care about the Earth. The Earth will survive without us. They only care about themselves and maintaining their comfortable lives that enable our self-extinction. :^)
>>70536515
that wouldn't be interesting at all
>>70537040
wildfires are beneficial though
>>70535807
Are they pretending to be retarded?

why do they write like this?
i hate americans
>>70537138
yeah, once in 100 years
not every few years
>>70537040
The fires are pretty shit for Californians, but from an ecological or environmental perspective, neither the fires nor the amount of deforestation is are major issues in the US.
Deforestation is a massive problem in Brazil and SEA, though.
>>70535807
Image doesn't account for season or different lenses which represent color differently. Also, anyone who has driven extensively across the US knows this is bullshit. Besides, all the trees we consume are from farms and are all re-planted.
>>70537311
they're in different locations. There's no telling how long the brush was sitting there before it was burned, granted it could have been <100 years, but most likely 100+ years.
google earth shows differently
retards will believe anything, nothing to see here.
Theres no way the southwest US is that fucking green
I CAN'T BREATHE

But that's just like, your opinion man.
I would be interested in such a study. I wouldn't be enthralled by it or suggest we raise taxes because of the study, but I would be interested.
There are more green now than in the past.
Biomass is higher now than in the past.
Younger trees provide less niche environment which is detrimental to bio systems.
Cure for that is.... Time.
Forrest fires have always been a part of ecology. Geological studies show ash layers profusely in soil. Implying very frequent burns.
Source for California wildfires most often attributed to lightning strike and focal light combustion. Not yahoo campfires.

ha game and match pol!

fuck off reddit.
>>70538113
How do I get to be a forest ranger
pls
>>70537696
it's all the weed farms
>>70538216
School. I'm not one my friend I grew up with is. He went to a forestry school in upstate NY. Look into it for your state. It is an interesting gig. You won't be a millionaire any time soon. But if you live the outdoors and don't mind surveying and counting trees, you could be very happy.
If you are lazy, tell me your state and I'll post reply of best schools close to you soon.

not only is that the most boring thing i have ever heard of, young trees scrub CO2 better than old trees do, given equivalent biomass.
BTW heres a photo taken in 2015 by NASA
i think you,l find theres more green than they claim.

These people are so, so ignorant. Deforestation was an issue that no-one gave a shit about in the 1850's. After the industrial revolution, higher standards of house insulation and the introduction of coal, trees in western countries have rebounded immensely.
Look at a picture of any western country a hundred years ago and I guarantee you that you will see very few trees, and then look up the same area today and it'll have lots of them, provided it's not farmland of course.
On that note, farmland is exactly why the OP image is bullshit. Deforestation of the US would only lead to more farmland which would be green, and on top of that population density is too low to justify the image.
>>70538684
Exactly. They are in their "puberty" stage. Still growing into adulthood and sucking up co2 like a mofo.

Idaho. I'm gonna look too though m8,

your 'calculations' (kek) are based on (kek) a model of the planet and its population circa before global warming and the rise of China -- the former element of which renders all your 'calculations' (kek) fundamentally null and void; the latter which make you faggot who thinks chinks who eat each other won't want red meat (*methane = 25~50 times the GWP of CO2)

University of Idaho
North Idaho College
College of South Idaho.
Weak naming skills for Idaho schools chief.
But yeah give those a look. You will also have to take federal exams at some point for government job. And make sure to network a lot. Small job market means making friends in good position to forward your name is going to be important. Tip; go to parks and chat with rangers. Show interest and be cool.
Best of luck

please tell me your joking right?
i wont even entertain the thought.

Also. Protip; Mormon girls a filthy cock freaks. Sneak one off the reservation in times of surplus testicle weight. They will drain you.
>>70538766
This. Most first world country actually have more trees now than 50 years ago.
Deforestation is a big problem in South america ,but not in the fucking US
I hope these people know those pics aren't real lol
>>70535807
Actually there are more Trees in the USA than what were 100 years ago
>>70539536

kek, thank you m8.
I will check that out.
Oh yeah and I've heard that more than once about Mormons.
>>70535807
Why is the US twice the size it was 34 years earlier?

makes sense
