What are some arguments against conservation?

Some people want to cut down trees to provide energy for there family or to sell, which also leaves more room for young trees to grow. Some people want to save the trees and wait 5 years after the tree is dead to fall down by itself because they think the tree is still giving us oxygen. These people also fine people for cutting down trees on their own property to save it from falling on a house or other important thing. These people also like looking at trees and talking to them, thanking them for saving our earth. Some peoples jobs include cutting these trees and selling them to people in need of a cheap energy source, while the other peoples jobs is to fine them. These people also say that burning fire wood makes bad gases. Well it creates smoke but nothing else. (this may or may not be biased, but if it is it is biased to the good side)
