I dont think dead trees killed by these beetles would make very good lumber since the larvae consumes the wood. The government needs to find away to either use pesticides or remove healthy trees that have not been effected by this evasive species brought here from east asia.The beetle will consume just about every type of tree in north America especially maple.
I believe pine beetles eat only the cambium layer and the tree dies because it can no longer transport water. Much the same affect as Dutch elm diseas. Processing these logs for whatever they use spruce for removes the soft cambium along with bark. If left standing of course other wood boring species will destroy its value, so don't leave it standing.
My neighbor run a hose into my yard and was pumping his septic system. The nitrogen killed four Colorado Blue Spruce about 22 inches in diameter. So I ordered an Alaskan saw mill. Didn't turn out bad even though they were standing dead four years.

You guys are fucking hilarious. Hey Wally, how would we collect the fines? I’ve never such a bunch of grumpier old men than you guys. Sad.
Hey libby Camper, ever hear if the ICC? (Internation Criminal Court) They can impose fines and collect fines from countries along with prison sentences. But hey, how would a big mouth tard know this. Maybe you should move to Canada along with your libtard friends!

I googled ICC. Look what I found. I think from one big mouth tard to another, you owe me an apology.

No, the United States is not a member of the International Criminal Court (ICC). While the US played a role in the creation of the ICC, it has not ratified the Rome Statute, which is the treaty establishing the ICC. The US signed the Rome Statute in 2000, but the Senate never ratified it, and the US later withdrew its signature in 2002.

Think the local weather and news can quit telling us that North Dakota does not have air quality sensors? Every fucking weather cast. Maybe the government trusts us to walk outside, see and smell smoke and decide what we will do for the day accordingly?

I think they would serve us the USA best if they just lit the entirety of their forests on fire, then within a week there would be nothing left to burn and ruin our summers.

Why would this not work, burn it all right now, and be done with it.
