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.

Do not do this! It can kill the tree just as surely as a chainsaw would, you’re letting bacteria and fungi in. 

Also, you’re not hurting the people responsible for the logging, you’re just hurting whoever they’ve hired. People who are doing nothing worse than working to live don’t deserve to have a chainsaw chain explode in their face.
