My idea is to add some sawmills, that help cut forrests. Why? Because it's little annyoing to run around and chop trees just to put some mines.
They can be powered with coal, or with electrity. But no need to add them, you can just blow trees with dunamites or shot them down, but sawmills could collect wood too! [Edit] They just chop down a chosen sector of size 5x5 smaller, or bigger. Also you need to research them, so it's not to easy to build them.
Optional: Depending on the type of sawmill (Burner, Electric), it can chop bigger or smaller area.

Oh, i didn't researched this technology yet, so i didn't knew that poison capsules can destroy trees.

If you have construction robots just select a forest to chop down. It's very fast and they collect wood.
