is deforestation necessary for advancement and development?

Is deforestation necessary for advancement and development? Do we really need to clear forests for society to develop and modernize? Is it possible to build a nation while remaining ecologically conscious? To what extent can this be achieved? When can we stop sacrificing our forests for what is perceived as the ‘greater good’ of society?

Cutting down trees isn’t inherently bad. As long as you don’t cut down too many trees in one place, and replant trees it’s fine. It’s only when you do massive, destructive clear-cutting type deforestation (like in the Amazon) that there’s any real impact.

Without materials for building things the only thing for us is hunting and gathering and that just won’t work.

It is necessary for modern society and it won’t stop, but it’s the least of our worries. It is quite possible to be ecologically friendly.
