Does anyone know if there's ever been any sort of proper retrospective why the forestry policies of many countries have been so disruptive. Ie supposedly the most organized, high trust, low corruption and scientific societies in the world like Finland and Japan have done some very drastic and unnatural forestry measures that cause effects to this day. It is different than some countries where rampant illegal logging has just destroyed the land, sure. But it's been terrible in other ways. Destruction of biodiversity, destruction of water. In Finland at least the policies have been absolutely forced by law and have sent people to prison and mental institutions. And the land and future generations will suffer for a thousand years. And now some of the policies have been completely reversed - as if nothing had happened. It's this completely parallel bizarre world.

Could we at least look at these tragedies honestly and openly, and learn something from them.
