More of Everything

January, 2021|

This thought provoking film from Moreofeverything.org is well worth watching though may add to your gloom. It exposes some of the myths of the so called sustainable Swedish forestry model though the production methods are not unique to Sweden.

Like many areas where mankind intervenes in natural processes our partial understanding of those processes, or willfully ignoring them, can lead to outcomes we did not expect and may even end up creating a worse situation than we started with.

The main take away for us from a business point of view was the importance of using wood sparingly when constructing new buildings. Given the vital importance of reducing carbon emmissions over the next 10 to 30 years advocates of the more timber sequestered the better should watch this film.
