Want to Fight Climate Change? Chop Down 'Em Trees

The Science, paid for by Mr. William Gates, says that we should save ourselves and the planet from climate change by chopping down ‘em trees.

(If this proposition makes no sense to you, your re-education project is not yet complete. Give it a few more years of properly “following the science,” and you’ll see how it makes perfect sense.)

Kodama Systems, is testing and perfecting its 25-foot-long, 17-ton semiautonomous timber harvesting machine.

Loggers use such machines, known as skidders, to grab tons of cut trees and debris and drag them out of the woods. Kodama’s version is designed to do the job even at night, with fewer workers, using satellite connectivity and advanced lidar (light detection and ranging) cameras, the same type that are used on self-driving cars, to monitor the work remotely. It isn’t easy. “There’s a lot of texture to the trees. Every 10 feet of skid trail is slightly different,” says Jenkins, 35.
