[originaltext]W: I heard that some people who were not environmental scientists

W: I heard that some people who were not environmental scientists were fighting to protect trees, is it true?
M: Yes. In Tasmania, the first green political party was developed. It includes members from all walks of life, who obviously want to protect the forests a lot. They have big protests, tie themselves to trees or sit up in trees to protect the trees from being cut down.
W: Really? People actually do that? Tie themselves to trees?
M: Yeah. It happens every day in Tasmania.
W: That’s interesting. I once heard of a girl who lived in a tree for a month because she wanted to stop the deforestation company or people from taking down that tree. She had people bring her supplies but she never came down.
M: That happens in Tasmania as well.
W: But Nick, some industries need to cut down trees, such as the logging and publishing industries. These industries also provide jobs for people. From this point of view, don’t you think that cutting down trees is good for the society?
M: Well, it’s true. They do provide jobs. Some small towns, even some cities do rely on logging industry to develop their economies. But…
W: But? Is there any bad influence?
M: Yes, It also results in some negative things. Take Tasmania for example, tourism is a very big industry in Tasmania, but the logging industry may take away tourists if trees are cut down.
W: Yeah, you are right. If the whole forest is missing, I guess nobody would really want to go and look at the scenery.
