“Southeast Alaska’s logging industry became heavily subsidized,” he observed in 2023. “In the past 40 years, taxpayers have lost $1.7 billion dollars ‘selling’ Tongass trees. The clear-cut logging practices were devastating for streams and wildlife. That must have come as a surprise to some of the supporters of the ‘it’ll grow back in a few years’ theory.”
