Responsible Deconstruction
Now you can. Reduce, reuse, recycle. Does anyone have ANY idea how many board feet of perfectly good wood we throw away every day in this country? Perhaps the horrible economy we're in now will have at least a tiny silver lining--this country can stop putting up row after row of 4000 square foot houses and pay a little more attention to the material gathered at the front of the bulldozer's blade. Yes, I guess everything comes down to economics. Well, we're finally in a sad enough state of affairs that people are going to pay more attention to the incredible waste of wood that would put a pretty decent roof over most anyone's head, especially in a different country. Unlike the solar, wind and electric powered car projects that get bulldozed under every time crude oil mysterious goes back under $50 bucks a barrel, trees just aren't going to last forever. We can easily implement programs can turn a profit on redistributed wood and responsible deconstruction and President Obama, we need to start now.
