Aside from selective logging, the majority of US tree production and harvesting is done from planted tree generations.
Also currently we have as much forest in this country as we did 100 years ago. Yes we may have less old growth than before but tree wise we actually have more. We can still cut as fast as we have been due to proper management that has been practiced for years and not lower nor deplete our forest levels.

I wish people knew what the fuck they were talking about before they put up shit like this. The rain forest in Brazil is being depleted by 2.7 million acres a year for the paper industry. At this rate it will completely gone in 40-50 years. Bush recently overturned a federal law which now will allow 58 million acres (over 30%) of our forests to be logged. Fuck man, get informed.
