Innit. The benefits of #positiveforestry shall be promoted elsewhere.

None so deaf as those that won't hear

We both joined this platform for similar reasons and now, after the last few days we are going to leave it alone a lot more. At least we tried!

We started #positiveforestry primarily for 2 reasons;

To showcase forestry as the complete industry it is for climate change, and;

To forge common ground between different viewpoints and communities.

So pleased to see @irishrainforest.bsky.social embrace this ethos, an example to us all. 🙌

A brilliant, informative and balanced read about the current situation in UK forestry. Refreshingly written by someone who actually does the job day in day out, rather than someone who thinks they do. #positiveforestry

Yes mate where I live.
It works well, it just needs to be allowed to.
Listen/read to some of the stuff I've been contributing to the past few months to get an idea. #shamelessplug

I really enjoyed listening to this podcast today. So refreshing to hear a positive and constructive discussion about the use of conifer tree species within the wider forestry sector and what their future use may look like going forward. #positiveforestry

Excellent thread about how woodland management can be so beneficial for a range of outcomes.

Good stuff.

Having finished our latest coppice harvesting contract today on the Cambs/Bedfordshire border, I thought I would put together a series of short videos to explain the work in more detail and explain why woodland management is so important.

So there you have it, proof commercial forestry isn't the evil some might tell you it is.
The problem isn't what we plant it's how we manage it. Push it solely into upland areas you're limited in what you can plant. Allow timber to be planted in lowland areas, look what you get ⬆️

#positiveforestry back with a bang this week!

The thing about forestry is it is one of the few industries where we can have our cake and eat it.

Or alternatively, this is a photo of another plantation. Looks like a forest doesn't it? Was planted in the 60's as 100% douglas fir and now its looks like this.

Forestry is a long game.

….if we are to improve our environment, fight climate change but also improve our lives.
Polarisation isn’t constructive. We need a balance of all forest types not demonisation of one against another. 🧵end

A brilliant example of woodland creation on a site in Suffolk. It highlights the subsequent management and the positive conservation outcomes it is achieving.
