I see nothing on that page that would cause a virus.

Just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean they are not after you.

America's Renewable Resource: America's annual forest growth exceeds harvest by over 30% each year. Since 1952, timber growth has increased steadily across all ownerships and regions. Standing timber volume is 30% greater than in 1952. More trees are growing in America's forests than at any time since the early 1900's.

People who do not understand nature and forest ecology have the strange idea that harvesting trees is "bad", so they oppose the forest products industry. Many locales are banning plastic grocery bags. I'd love to see a return of the good old recyclable, biodegradable, burnable paper bag.

Wildfires are way down in Michigan because the forests are managed well. I also think some of the increased growth is from the extra co2 available and the slight warming. More positive things from warming.

We do need a return to paper bags. Covering books with plastic bags just doesn't work as well. 8-)

I do find it interesting how many conservative Christian people will lap up anything from The Blaze when they simultaneously believe Glenn Beck to be a heretic and spiritually in outer darkness.

The Blaze does have an awful lot of ads, and they don't seem to care if the ads are peddling malware.
