Field Study Summary

On tuesday we went to Magness tree farm. It was really funny when we were at the station with Bill wood Nathan convinced Bill that his name was Jamal. It was also really fun to go on the hike and see the over grown christmas tree farm. because my dad was in a boy scout troop that went to Magness tree farm and did stuff with them. The weather was really nice because for most of the day the sun was shinning and it wasn't to cold. I learned a lot of different things from this. 
Essential questions:
1. I would choose medium thinning because then you make enough money and also not clear-cut the land.
2. some of the uses of plants or trees in general.
-Toilet Paper
-timber
-shade
-fire wood 
-maple syrup
-christmas trees
-fruit 
-art tools 
3. Logging affects the global climate change because when you log you are taking trees away that could be talking in C02. this is changing the environment because right now we are putting a lot of carbon in the air which is causing the global temperature to rise.
-Haven
