Why are you attacking me, Marum. Nowhere in my post did I say "we have to cut down old growth forests".

Trees grow faster than oil, coal, and iron ore, regardless.

Hardwoods are preferred, due to durability, but even current standards allow for pine.

The Americans seem to have quite a body on the use of pine as poles.

It is not a problem to used treated pine for poles, they just don't last as long. So what? Oh no we'll need to plan better. An industry growing trees in a plantation is relatively low energy / high human labour compared to mining/concrete/steel production.

The point is deindustrialisation.
