No Tree stands forever:biggrin:

[David Humphries]

Surely that should be considered a "positive".

If "we" are truely concerned for the welfare of the woods and trees?

A conundrum I appreciate.

I think we should be encouraging more people to visit woodlands than currently do.

I read that it's on the increase but firmly believe that we should always keep aspiring to open access and opportunity for urban dwellers to interact with woodland.

 

Increasing peoples mental & physical well being.

 

 

ofcourse this puts more pressure on the trees but that's where management comes in.

 

Fencing, propping, bracing, retrenchment etc....

 

Costly but the trees win and the public win.

Ah! he says, now being enlightened "jobs for the boys" is it:lol:

A "win-win" indeed.

Costly doesn't have to be seen in monetary terms,

this type of work could be accomplished voluntarily with the appropriate guidance.

Good piece. Well found.

 

"Wood Wide Web" - like it.

 

Richard Maybe, didn't he write 'Beechcombings' as well. Good book I've heard it's worth a read.
