Dear Friends

 

Basically there is less unsustainable wood cutting that previously assumed.

I am surprised to see 4 million DALY's changed to 4 million deaths. Can
anyone help locate how that translation occurred? Which figures should we be

1 DALY is one year, not a death.  Opinions please.

 

Thanks
Crispin
