A few hundred people have turned out to protect historic century-old ginkgo trees that are likely to be chopped down under a controversial redevelopment for a beloved Tokyo park district.

And yet his rule should apply. We shouldn’t fell trees that are older than we are. Plantations only get to 10 years of age for most wood, maybe 15.
Maybe where you live. To get a usable tree you need at least 40years around here, to get a tree you can build with takes around a hundred years….
While i agree with you, i have to note that trees generally reach the age of about 30-40 before harvesting, at least stuff like spruce which is what is mostly grown in sweden.
The whole defining feature of forestry is that you harvest stuff planted by your dad when he was a kid.
