If Natural disasters continually strike areas making tree plantations impossible to grow, other countries would still be able to supply wood. It will always be possible!

It is poss-able if we cut trees at a slower rate which would let the seedling replace the trees all ready cut down. We can remove a whole Forrest in a year; but the replacement trees will take thirty or more years to start replacing the filter/cooling system the cut nature trees provided us and mother earth with. As we need more wood we cut at a faster rate; but even the fastest growing trees take years to grow back and reforest the cut area. while these seedlings are starting out the rich top soil is being washed away which slows growth and survival of the seedlings reducing the Forrest regrowth programs to a loosing cause.

It is possible. Think of a garden. You plant, grow, harvest. If you're smart, you keep planting periodically so that your harvest last longer. The thing with trees, as with a garden, is that there needs to be an adequate ratio between time, planting, area, and harvest. You need to give the trees time to grow to a point where they can be harvested, and you need to have enough area planted in trees to give you the quantity you need, and you need to keep planting. It's just like the Christmas tree farms only on a larger (and longer) scale.
