As loggers retire, the industry is now facing the challenging task of recruiting and training the next generation to continue operating an industry that makes civilization as we know it, possible. I sit down with Ryer Becker, part of the research faculty in the Department of Forest, Rangeland, and Forest Sciences at The University of Idaho, to talk about their new degree program helping educate and train the next generation of people entering the logging industry. We talk about the significance of logging in our daily lives, the state of the industry with respect to workforce, and how the industry can work to reshape its image.
