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.

[wipes away single tear] The fact that someone read about a federal eco-terrorism crime and immediately thought of me just made my week.

Can’t spikes be detrimental to the tree though? or is it different from say, driving copper nails into a tree? I recall a long time back stories of people killing neighbours’ trees in the urban setting via copper nails driven into the trees.
