The problems come when you go to plant the tree to replace the one cut down. When clearcutting happens trees are stripped from creek and riversides causing erosion and floods. Planting the tree onto bare rock doesn't usually work.

it is common practice NOT to cut trees away from the sides of rivers etc not only for erosion but to keep the water the same temp for the fish. This is a poor example as it is not usually done.
