Michael Housw write to me about my post at stoves lists:
> I agree with you sir i am 64 and have been making charcoal all my life 
and studying trees and biomass it can all be renewed ---in fact trees 
need to be thined out ---i have watched select cutting for years ---it 
is all renewable fuel
I replied:
My dear friend and colleague,
I am 76. I work with wood and charcoal, all my life. I believe that a 
civilized concern about the forest can take a timber and not to reduce 
the wealth of nature. Man is able to make the forest more healthy and 
wealthy, if the correct use of his wealth. People and forests are 
closely linked. Ancient people could live under the protection of 
forests only. The first timber of the first people - the Garden of Eden 
was the first place of human happiness.
Thank you for contact and understanding
