Good read Tom - thanks for posting.
I often think along similar lines re all the brash that's left following clearance felling - I've seen a few sites in Fife (Tentsmuir notably but also around Cupar) where there is a lot of material simply left to rot after timber has been extracted. I'm not a forestry bloke so it may just be that it's uneconomical to extract this brash. Either way, there is a lot of potential energy there seemingly being missed out on.
What're your thoughts?
