Looking to import firewood

Is there not a feeling that increased demand for firewood is possibly going to be a good thing for the woodlands of the UK? Increased earning potential leading to old neglected coppice woodland being put back into rotation, and more areas of land planted up with trees instead of just being left? I know that this won't have much effect in the short term, but a few years down the line things could be different.

hi all. finally found some figures on UK imports. Apparently the UK uses 1180000 tonnes of firewood per year. One million of that is homegrown the remaining 180 000 tonnes is import. Can't comment on the veracity of the data though. I'm posting from my phone and have no idea how to copypaste on this thing. I'll post the link later when I'm on a proper computer.
