What’s the point of such a hostile, sarcastic and off base comment, man?

What’s the point of such a hostile, sarcastic and off base comment, man?
- charbonneau 5y agoThe point is to stop and think about what you're reading. Same goes for postwar economic booms.
- rexreed 5y agoOk,let's stop and think. The article is saying that the rate of deforestation stopped increasing in the 1980s, and since then we've made gains on reforestation as well as stopping the increase in deforestation rate. What exactly would you like the alternative to be? A re-increase in deforestation rates? A halt to reforestation? Yes, wishful thinking would be that it would be nice if we didn't have all that deforestation to begin with, but here we are, reversing that trend, and somehow there's an alternative that would be better than that? What alternative to reducing the rate of deforestation and increasing reforestation is there?
- charbonneau 5y agoNeither titzer nor me suggested there was an alternative.
