Is the existence of the Woodland Trust justified?
What the Woodland trust say about the Scottish Executive "Adoption of a Scottish target to reduce CO2emissions. The Executive should adopt a specific target to reduce Scotland’s CO2 emissions by more than 20% below 1990 levels by 2010, including specific sector-by-sector targets." So how do these fine words square with the Woodland Trust's own activities and the activities they encourage in others? Their "management" activities and the encouragement of the woodland environment as recreation zones for over a million visitors a year in Scotland alone - many travelling by car for the purpose of emptying their dogs - is damaging to the natural environment. Is their agenda of planting of native saplings, rather than conifers that have greater carbon fixing attributes together with the added advantage of maintaining a sustainable timber source thereby offsetting environmentally damaging imports, an example of their futility in terms of combatting global warming? Would the woodland environment and it's wildlife be better served if left undisturbed and protected by legislation, rather than being exploited by the Woodland Trust's policy of introducing millions of the planet's most damaging and intrusive mammals into nature's unspoiled places? Can the existence of the Woodland Trust be justified in terms of combatting global warming?
