They should be forced to replant the same number of trunk diameter-inches. (Or diameter-meters, I guess, being in Finland.) In other words, for every 1’ diameter tree they remove, they should have to plant 12 1" saplings (either back on the same site or elsewhere when they run out of space).

They should have to plant back the same sized trees and replant wherever they sourced the trees from.

Replant the area and fund maintenance and custodianship until the forest reaches the state it was in before they clear-cut it. As well as conservation efforts to protect the surrounding areas until that point is reached.

Should also be at the same site, since there is no garantuee other location will be as favorable to host a forest.

Surface area of cross section of (1) 12" trunk: 113.1 square inches
Surface area of cross section of (12) 1" trunks: 9.42 square inches
The percent change from the single 12" trunk to the twelve 1" trunks is a decrease of 91.67%.

I know it isn’t the same cross-sectional area. I was just suggesting the same as how my local government does tree recompense.

And fund its conservation until it reaches an equivalent state to before it was clearcut.

Good idea! Send them to prison, then add part of the sentence, they must go out and plant 250 thousand trees.

Something fun about Finland is that most of their criminal Justice system has “day fines”, i.e. the fine is based on losing a day’s labour etc. I have no idea if that holds true for corporations but if so…

Will there be actual jail sentences is it going to be the usual fines that companies treat as cost of doing businesses and can even declare as expenses in order to reduce the taxes they pay?

I hope the plans for the data centre are suspended indefinitely, at the very least.

We should fine Google to 10 - 12 billion Euros. It would make our economy better.
