Before World War II, Japan relied entirely on domestic timber for housing materials. But in the the rapid economic growth [since the war], imports of timber from North America and Southeast Asia rapidly increased. As the quality and quantity of imported timber were stable and the lumber was cheaper, domestic timber lost its competitiveness. Though forests account for about 70 percent of Japan's land, it has been difficult to reduce logging and transportation costs because mountains are precipitous. Sluggish sales of domestic timber are damaging forests.

This wasn't a no-logging-versus-lots-of-logging kind of battle. It was people asking them to take some new, smarter approaches to logging. We're saying, do it smarter. Don't go into these places that shouldn't be logged, like right next to a salmon stream.

It's the logging that's at the core of the problem. We would not have this dramatic increase in bush meat death and destruction if it weren't for the commercial logging.

[Although much of the downed timber is on private land, Odom is hoping to get federal approval to process much of it in sawmills. But the future of the wind-scoured forests] is my big concern, ... It'll take 30 years to replace most of those trees. Losing that resource hurts us bad.

No logging permits are given to this area, there is no transport system, not a single road. But clearly with time everything is a threat.
