      This doesn’t happen straight away and probably will never get to this percentage but it’s a huge step

        If the rate of 57% less each year remains constant, we’re down to 10.6% after 4 years, and 1.11% after 8 years. So logging could pretty much stop this decade. Again unrealistic, since first chunks are always easier than last bits. Just trying to highlight how much this is.
