Hello fellow Cyanide and Happiness fans!

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net) and a an extra or two randoms.

Cyanide & Happiness (C&H) is a webcomic created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick and Matt Melvin. The comic has been running since 2005 and is published on the website explosm.net along with animated shorts in the same style. Matt Melvin left C&H in 2014, and several other people have contributed to the comic and to the animated shorts… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide_%26_Happiness

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, media, cool stuff about the authors, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s Cyanide and Happiness related!

Ps. Sub to all my comic strip communities…

Paper is a CO2 sink so good for the environment.

It's a short term one, though. Better to not cut down trees unnecessarily.

Sawmills I knew about rotated areas they'd cut from and did tree planting in the summers in the areas logged to be sustainable. Of course in Canada there's not much shortage of trees to cut down anyways but I thought that was the usual way in US and Canada. I don't mean we should be cutting down 1/20th (I'm not sure how many years the rotations were offhand) of the trees each year or anything though.

It's not about reducing the number of trees. While the tree is alive, it's sequestering carbon. Once the tree is processed, it's just a matter of a hundred years or so before most of that carbon is back in the system.

Not to mention the energy-intensive processes to cut down, transport, and process the trees into paper or paper products like TP.
