Well, I could do operations for logging that are otherwise not required...

   if(log) { logger.write(computestuff()); }

Depending on language if you have first class functions you could also do:

  logger.write(computestuff);

Or for parameterized functions:

  logger.write(() => computestuff(a, b, c));

Then all that logging policy stuff can live with the logging and doesn't need to be checked explicitly throughout the codebase.
