Deforestation a hoax.
"Clear Cut" wrote in message ... If you are interested in US statistics, spend some quality time with: http://fia.fs.fed.us/ The Forest Inventory and Analysis program of the Forest Service has been in continuous operation since 1930 with a mission to "make and keep current a comprehensive inventory and analysis of the present and prospective conditions of and requirements for the renewable resources of the forest and rangelands of the United States." And it's been proven to be next to worthless, at least for the Northeast, by Karl Davies, consultant from Mass.- since their inventory methods don't measure tree height, nor tree grade. See www.daviesand.com. For a world wide perspective, explore the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. You can generate your own tables from thier database: http://apps.fao.org/ They say that between 1964 to 1994 there was a net loss of 376,560,000 Hectares of forest and woodlands. 1994 ws the last year that I could quickly find statistics for. That's 12,552,000 Ha per year Land Use Forests And Woodland (1000Ha) Year 1994 AGG_COUNTRIES 8,344,870 (Aggregate of all countries) Year 1964 AGG_COUNTRIES 8,721,430 If you would like a more detailed analysis, I would be happy to supply one at my regular consulting rates. I think that you will find the picture changes dramatically depending on where you look. In article , wrote: Where is Government research indicating a risk of depletion? I can't find any answers to my simple questions, it must be a hoax by the Greenie. Simple questions. 1, how much forests left? 2, how many acres per year used? 3, how many acres per year replaced? -- Due to SPAM filtering, please add NOSPAM to email subject to improve your chances of an actual reply. |
