Book excerpt: Founded in 1919 to deal with the chronic timber shortage after the First World War, the Forestry Commission has developed from a government department focused on production into a leading environmental organisation that also champions the landscape, encouraging wildlife and public access. The sheer scale of the organisation between and after the wars meant that it built its own roads and bridges, constructed and supported entire villages and planted over two million acres of forest. Published to mark the centenary of the Commission, British Forests examines not only its unique history but also the Commission's role in research, and the promotion of tree planting in both cities and countryside. The book features a selection of the Nations' forests and beautiful botanical illustrations of trees from its pinetum at Bedgebury in Kent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British National Forestry: Reprinted From the Agricultural Journal of January 17th and 31st, 1901 Now it pastures a few sheep! Sheep that could be pastured better in Australia or in South Africa, where it is too dry or hot to grow coniferous timber. When the old forest was cut down the usual soil deterioration followed. What was once a rich forest 8011 is now barren moorland. The contrast was all the greater as I had come straight from a tour in the Black Forest in Germany, where the reverse side of the picture is strikingly presented. There almost every square yard is utilised. In the fertile bottom lands of the valleys, sheltered and enriched by the forest, are villages, hamlets, cultivated lands and factories. Factories, worked by water from forest streams, where the air seems as clear and pure as on the Alps. Above and all around, stretching over an apparently limitless expanse of rolling hills, lies the glorious forest, natural in its beauty, artificial in its productiveness. In the valleys are the Spas, whither flees the German in summer as the Englishman to his seaside watering place. Few would hesitate which to choose if there were forests in England. Surely the aesthetic side of forests would have some influence on a not too artistic national character! I know of no reason why there should not be another Black forest on Dartmoor or Exmoor. Nor why we should not see in England that fair landscape of sea and forest that has rendered Knysna famous throughout South Africa. Is there any valid reason why many as fair a scene should not be repro duced in England to-day It is my object in the following pages to submit certain facts bearing on this important subject, facts well worthy of earnest consideration at the present time. If England and the British Isles are to be restored to their former beauty and productive ness, Reforesting is essential.

This book was released on 2008-05-08 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forestry has been witness to some dramatic changes in recent years, with several Western countries now moving away from the traditional model of regarding forests merely as sources of wood. Rather these countries are increasingly recognizing their forests as multi-purpose resources with roles which go far beyond simple economics. In this innovative book, Sylvie Nail uses England as a case study to explore the relationships between forests, society and public perceptions, raising important questions about forest policy and management both now and in the future. Adopting a sociological approach to forest policy and management, the book discusses the current validity of the two principles underlying forestry since the Middle Ages: first, that forestry should only exist when no better use of the land can be made, and second, that forestry itself should be profitable. The author stresses how values and perceptions shape policies, and conversely how policies can modify perceptions, and also how policies can fail if they do not take perceptions into account. She concludes that many of the issues facing English forestry in the 21st century – from leisure, health and amenity provision, through education and rural as well as urban regeneration, to biodiversity conservation – go well beyond both national borders and the scope of forestry. Indeed forestry in the 21st century seems to be less about planting and managing trees than about being a vector and a mirror of social change. This novel synthesis provides a valuable resource for advanced students and researchers from all areas of natural resource studies, including those interested in social history, socio-economics, cultural geography and environmental psychology, as well as those studying landscape ecology, environmental history, policy analysis and natural resource management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the fascinating story of the policies and projects that resulted in doubling the size of British forests over the past eighty years and of the Acts and actors that played a role in this development. By the end of the century the area of forests in the United Kingdom (including Northern Ireland) had risen to over two and three quarter million hectares and covered eleven per cent of the land area. Three quarters of them consisted of plantations. Few other countries - Ireland and Denmark are two - have achieved a comparable change in the rural landscape in favour of forestry over as short a time. Furthermore, from being in a deplorable state by the end of the First World War, British forests are now well above the European average in terms of productivity (wood yield per hectare). At the same time they are being called upon to meet increasingly heavy social and environmental demands from a dense, largely urbanised society.

This book was released on 2010-03-19 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Forest project was established in 1995 with the aim of creating a new English forest across a 200 square mile area, embracing parts of Leicestershire, Staffordshire and Derbyshire. The National Forest's purpose is to increase woodland cover to a third of The National Forest area, whilst demonstrating sustainable, multi-purpose land use, including growing timber, providing leisure and tourism facilities and developing natural habitats. Key features of The National Forest are its linkage of previously isolated ancient woodlands and the establishment of new nature reserves, as well as the provision of a framework for farm diversification and the regeneration of former coalfields. It is delivering tangible environmental, economic and social benefits to an area of the Midlands - much of which was suffering economic and environmental decline - through planting trees to create new woods and forests. Its achievement is not so much in trebling the proportion of land with tree cover to 18 per cent, but that, in so doing, it has helped to regenerate the local economy, open up the Forest to greater public use and improve the natural environment. The success has been built on the commitment and skills of all the partner organisations, and The National Forest Company has played a crucial leadership role to enable the project to deliver effectively the multiple benefits of forestry. There needs to be a systematic approach to disseminating the company's experiences so that lessons learned can be exploited across England.
