Why Is America the Biggest Lumber Importer in the World? - Mike Albrecht (Mike Rowe Video)
In this 12 March 2025 video, host Mike Rowe sits down with Mike Albrecht, He’s the president of the American Loggers Council. They discuss today’s logging industry and a growing crisis which threatens the buiness of felling trees.Albrecht has some answers, and I think you’ll find those answers illuminating.
Rowe has made no secret of the absurdity (and the hypocrisy, in my opinion) of opposing fossil fuel production in this country, while supporting the policies that require us to import fossil fuels from other places. In fact, I’ve described those policies as the height of duplicity, and still stand by that, mostly.The Logging industry also falls into that category.
Our reliance on wood is extraordinary, and we are blessed to live in a country with over 800 million acres of forest. That’s literally a third of America, covered in trees. Unfortunately, we act as if forest land and timber reserves are in short supply.
In fact, America imports more wood products than any other nation. What the hell is wrong with us? Why are we letting our forests burn and rot at record levels? Why aren’t we instead, harvesting the timber we so desperately need, and exporting the surplus? Why are we not “wood independent”?
