REFORESTING IDLE FARMLAND
ONE SOLUTION
TO GLOBAL WARMING
Well-managed, healthy forests
utilize atmospheric carbon (from
carbon dioxide) at the rate of 2.5
tons per acre per year, making
forest land the world's major
storehouse of carbon dioxide,
the worst of the "greenhouse
gases." By reforesting idle
farmland with fast-growing trees,
we are helping to combat global
warming.
However, simply planting trees is
not enough! We must choose for
planting those trees that are fast-
growing on local soil conditions
and manage these new forests
for continued rapid growth rates.
The trees we plant must have
potential for efficient conversion
into useful products with a long
storage life (such as structural
building materials, furniture,
wood trim). In the Wingham
District, white pine frequently
meets these criteria best.
Our goal: to quickly "lock up"
carbon in the wood of vigorous
new plantations and to keep it
there, in the form of forests and
wood products, over the long
term. Our future may depend
upon it!
