Wal-Mart promotes green gaming has word that the retail giant has met with representatives of Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo to discuss making console gaming more environmentally friendly. Topics included giving system lower power standby modes, and the possibility of reversing the recent evolution to plastic game packaging by returning to paper and cardboard packaging, with Wal-Mart saying that would reduce the industry's carbon footprint by the equivalent of taking 4000 cars off the road.

Oh really? So, what do you guess they are building out here?

Nice zoom scale. Scale in a little and you will also see there are still tons of trees in those cut area. You can also see from those patches that they are not taking from everywhere at once. In 5-8 years time from that same zoom level you would not know there was ever a tree cut there. But in that time there will be other areas cut and other patches.

But when you zoom in you will see it is not being clear cut... Or only small section at once. As that entire screen you see at your zoom level is most likely owned by lumber companies, and they have not cut it all down. Thus not clear-cutting. But yes, OMG, some trees do get cut down for lumber!!!
