Step 3: Profit
This actually does exist, in certain locations. In mine's US state, I plan to install beehives and get an agriculture exemption, which prevents me from developing 99% of property (minus driveways / logging roads)... but also cuts property taxes massively.
You can then get additional conservation easements (10yr contracts) that then allow you to offset essentially all of a DINK household's W2 income.
Despite all the loopholes, this does keep the trees alive and generating oxygen / habitat.

- MrVandemar 3y ago> install beehives Commercial beehives, or even hobbyist level bee-keeping, displace native insect populations. They're very aggressive insects. Pollen and nectar seem like limitless resources; they aren't. Swarms can take over bird-nesting hollows, and drive out native mammals. I have hives. Yeah, I don't feel great about it, but there are compromises baked into everything.
