Profit While Reducing Logging Damage
Recent studies have suggested that reduced impact logging techniques are more economically feasible than once thought.
A study by IMAZON scientists in Paragominas, Brazil found that reduced impact logging raised productivity 30%,
reduced waste 78%, reduced total costs 12%, and increased revenue 19%. IMAZON scientists concluded that reduced
impact logging techniques could allow a fixed area of the Amazon to be harvested indefinitely to provide the world's
wood supply.
