Canada

Here in BC, record forest fires year after year are certainly having an impact, although the mountain pine beetle fallout is finally also coming to fruition.

It was open season on beetle killed timber for over a decade, creating a glut of timber supply. It's just going to go to waste anyways (up in smoke a fair amount as well). I think most of that beetle kill is done with now, or at least the easier logged stuff.

If we kept up on replanting, it usually takes 20-40 years for most of the tree species harvested in BC to mature, so those replanted trees wouldn't be mature for another 10+ years anyways. Now throw in the heat dome, droughts, etc. and it just gets more fun (and fiery).

I'm not a forester or silviculturist, and I'm not on the logging side of the business, but my impression is that there just isn't going to be as much cheap lumber available in BC, potentially ever. I would chalk a large part of this to global warming, right from the original pine beetle infestation. This means that the underlying problem is bigger than the government of BC can fix on it's own, but I would have hoped to see more vigour in a push for climate action from the people of BC, specifically those whose forest industry jobs are threatened.
