Fun fact, hammering metal spikes into tree trunks is a federal crime in the US because environmental activists used to do it in the 80s to fuck up chainsaws and logging equipment.
So you should never use this effective strategy for disrupting logging operations because it is illegal.
Here’s a link describing exactly how to do it, so you can make sure not to by accident.
Hey yall I know we wanna save the environment but the reason it’s illegal is because when machinery hits that spike it sends shrapnel (yknow, shrapnel of a RUNNING CHAINSAW) flying and is prone to killing or severely disfiguring the user. That’s like poisoning McDonald’s employees because you hate capitalism. It doesn’t make any impact on the big business behind the harm being done but gets innocent people trying to make a living killed.
PLEASE don’t do this and stop spreading info that could get people killed.
