Hi Forestry Forum

Having just joined the forum, after discovering it after a bit of googling into where the industry meets and discusses issues. I wanted to share a short film we worked on that although focused on the UK forestry industry, i thought some of the members might be interested in to. We tried to pull together some of the data from recent years and present it in a interesting way. Showing a little behind the scenes look at what happens in the industry.

 That was a very good video. I know we have some put out by the industry, but more would be better.

Thanks Ed_K, the more widespread the understanding of what we do in the industry the better in my opinion.

Thanks for posting. I had no idea what UK forests looked like and for some reason never pictured conifers  ??? Those BlocX seem like a great idea. We need more thinking like that.

Thanks for the positive feedback everyone! we got a little heat from some greenpeace supporters online in the comments sections which wasn't ideal, but you can't win them all! haha

A renewable resource some folks don't get it.
Very nicely done.

Thanks for the video. The British Isles at one time were almost completely forested. Even Ireland was once a forest.  Restocking is important, but the least of our problems in North America. We suffer from rampart overstocking and 125 years of fire suppression.
