Silent Trees Die for Man Made Lumber
An essay contrasts the silent growth of noble trees with the brutal efficiency of modern pack house and saw mill processes. It likens tree felling to torture, describes 4500 foot climbs to the packing yard, conveyors, and band saws, and ends by noting how machines turn vast trunks into lumber for houses and rails while the trees die in quiet dignity. It invokes stark imagery of animals and industry, urging reflection on nature versus mechanized industry.
