There's wisdom in that, in terms of respecting nature, but there's also the immediacy for communities that are living in big, same-age-class forests that are stressed and that are undergoing forcings from the natural world. That is not a natural dynamic, actually. That's a recent dynamic that has only emerged in the last 400 years here on Turtle Island. Our people have a longer horizon and you have to go deep into the archeological record to look at it, where you actually need to manage the landscape with a little more complexity, with fire, with water, with wind, with the different elements of nature writ large, and that's a complex answer that is best provided by the experts in that locality and in the region, and which we can learn nationally.
However, to tell a community that's basically sitting in the middle of matchsticks that are ready to go up that we shouldn't do anything, I think, sirs and madames, is a recipe for loss of human life and devastation.
