Dear Nadine, you say >>>>Generally, if you
devastate the natural environment to, say, clear-cut the forests, GDP will show a big gain
from selling the wood. A GDP drop won't come until much later, when the hills slide into the
sea.

You equate the above with using 1/100000 of an area and providing 20 to 30 years of the energy required by the US.

Is that like saying using 1 out of a 100000 trees is the same as clear cutting???

Nadine, the world waits with baited breath for oracle nadine to tell us it's so.

With humble civility your servant
