Flooding and Illegal Logging

I find it interesting to read the reports of flooding in the Philippines. They are blaming much of the flooding on illegal logging.

There are firms using newer techniques that harvest selectively and thereby maintain the ecosystem where they are working. This must become the norm if we are to survive. The other option is much larger scale commercial farms to produce the fibers we require.
