Honestly, what's the difference between logging in one make-believe-border geographic area vs another? Isn't it doing the same damage to this planet in the long run?
There are woodland species and grassland species. The grassland extends into the woodlands quite a bit. Even a small clearing in the middle of heavy woods makes a big dent in available woodland for species. Having large, unbroken areas of forest are essential for survival of the plants and animals that live there.
That's how a songbird researcher explained it to me.
