Of course, it's better not to waste the lumber since the trees are being cut down anyway. My point isn't that logging is good, but that there's a much bigger threat in regards to deforestation that has an attainable individual goal where we don't need to rely on greedy corporations changing their minds. There are admittedly a huge portion of people who will outright refuse to go vegetarian but any vegetarian people will make a difference. If 50% of people go vegetarian that means we'll use 1/3 less land. 25% of people means 1/6 less land, etc.

Addressing climate change requires a multi-pronged approach and every little bit helps.
