Eye on Keweenaw Land Association

I was unaware of this company till today, but I side with management.
Spending the renewable timber resource in a slow replaceable rate provides income for as many years as the timber has value. Stripping it off for mining , or neglecting it (mining capital needs) can create risks of a current sure income. Forestry requires management including harvesting. Mining on the other hand is a one shot non-self-replenishing endeavor. It seems we are looking at the not so uncommon practice of take control, strip the assets, fill their pockets and leave the mess, mentality. This is a world wide concept that will leave the earth berift of raw materials for our grandchildren to live upon. It is an indirect method of of eating your babies!
