The forest service has done a pretty impeccable job managing that bit of woods so far. Vermont's forests are healthy and growing. Logging (when done the right way) helps mimic natural disturbances that humans otherwise prevent and can lead to healthier, more diverse, and stronger forests.

Note that the proposed plan is not manifesting from individuals in the local Vermont forestry sector, it’s a federal government plan, and this is not logging as you’re used to, it’s clear-cutting and creating a road/tele services through the clear cut area. Once that starts, it won’t stop.
