The rain forest exhibit, located in front of the Union Auditorium Tuesday and Wednesday, was intended to make people aware of the rate the tropical rain forests are disappearing, said Chris van Daalen, co-chair of the rain forest action group of the Student Environ mental Action Coalition (SEAC). Anne Winn, SEAC member, said half of the world's rain forests, which originally covered about 14 percent of the world's land mass, had been lost. Tropical rain forests cover areas of Central America, South America, Southeast Asia and Africa, she said. The tropical rain forests contain approximately one-half of the plant and animal species in the world, Winn said. Many of the plant species have medical uses, and many other plant species have never been identified by scientists, she Carolina Students ' Credit Union Rates 30-89 Days 7.743simple 90-179 Days 7.7938.100 180-269 Days 7.7938.100 270-364 Days 7.9198.240 365 Days 8.0598.392 Compounding is daily.

"If we lose plants we haven't discov ered, we could lose a cure for AIDS or some other large disease." Van Daalen said the organizers of the rain forest exhibit also hoped to raise awareness of the loss of temperate rain forests in the Pacific Northwest states of Washington, Oregon and Alaska. Old-growth forests, areas that have never been cut, are being cut at a faster.rate than the rain forests in Bra zil, he said. Between two and two and one-half million acres of old-growth rain forests remain in the Northwest while 2,000 acres in Oregon and Wash ington are being cut each week, he said. At the present rate, the original for ests in the Pacific Northwest will be lost within 1 0 years, he said. Van Daalen added that secondary forests will be left behind but that many areas can not be replanted because of topsoil loss.

I 1 J V J forest is the single most important ecosystem that protects our globe from the greenhouse effect and global warm ing." The forests reduce the greenhouse effect by storing huge amounts of car bon, which contribute to global wann ing when released into the atmosphere, she said. "If you have an ecosystem that keeps more carbon tied up in living things, or inert material, you are not putting it into the air," she said. The U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management oversee the logging operations carried out on public lands, she said. The U.S. Con gress tells the agencies how many board feet of timber can be cut down, she said. A board foot of wood is equal to one square foot of wood, one inch thick. The decision to cut down timber on public lands is a political process rather than an environmental process, she said. Politicians from the Pacific Northwest are closely connected to the timber industry of the area. The agencies who enforce Congress' decisions are not unwilling participants, Crockett said. Most of the individuals in the U.S. Forest Service and the Bu reau of Land Management who are involved in the process think logging on public lands is acceptable, she said. In addition to overseeing timber operations, the U.S. Forest maintains 343,000 miles of logging roads with plans to add 580,000 miles, Crockett said. While timber operations have in creased in the Northwest, there has been a 15 percent decrease in employ ment in the timber industry from 1979 to 1 985. In 1 979, the industry employed 4.5 workers to process one mill ion board feet of timber, but employed only 2.8 workers to do the same amount of work in 1985, she said.

The Forest Service develops plans', for each national forest, determining how much land can be used for timber; production, Bergsvik said. The plans usually run on a 10- to 15-year cycle'' which can be amended annually as, needed, he said. In Oregon and Washington, the agency has set aside 12 million acres . for timber production, he said, while. 1 .8 million acres have been set aside for timber production in Alaska. One per cent of that acreage is used for timber production each year, he said. . ' ; The agency then sells the timber to the highest-bidding lumber company,., with prices for timber averaging about $200 per 1,000 board feet in Oregon, ' $ 1 50 per 1 ,000 board feet in Washing; . ton, and $50 per 1,000 board feet in Alaska, he said. Bergsvik said the agency was com fortable with the logging operations on 1 public lands. He added that numerous measures were taken to reduce the" environmental impact of the loggirig operations, including protecting against erosion, setting maximum sizes of clear cut areas and overseeing the logging'1 process. Barry Polsky, communications di rector of the National Forest Products Association, said that logging opera tions in the Northwest posed no envi-. ronmental hazards and that any envi-. ronmental impacts were accounted for. by the laws. "The U.S. government has the strict-, est environmental laws of any nation in . the world and the logging industry fol lows them to the letter," he said.
