Really hate that ppl think “no ethical consumption” means “just do whatever fuck it ” and not “still try to be ethical but know that purity in this regard is practically impossible so just do your best”

Phytophthora Pluvialis
"What is it, which trees does it affect, & what is its current status? I hope my article can shed a bit of light on what I fear is the latest in our battle against disease"

U.K. imports 80% of the forest products we use.
Global demand for forest products will double by 2050.
Irish sawmilling in crises
U.K. Sawlog price at near record £90/ tonne

But it’s O.25 Ha of deep peat damaged in a 285 Ha 🌲planting scheme that gets everyone’s attention 🤔

@lwhemmings That's really interesting and not something I'd seen before. I can't help but feel all sides in this debate need to take some of the emotionally charged hate out of the conversation and look at it all more objectively

@lwhemmings @ForestryComm @foresterlacey @JesseKak @foresters @TheICF @WoollyMaggot @andyheald @Enda_Keane @ArneTanYrOnnen @GDennison1997 @Wood_n_Water I've been using Avenza and it makes navigating unfamiliar or complex sites am absolute breeze

@TomJenkinsFR @nyancas Surely at best it's a matter of time before it comes here. It seems inevitable that sooner or later we'll be having to deal with this issue

Last night I find the pavement blocked by an ancient olive tree. Ripped (illegally?) from a Mediterranean hillside, crudely pollarded, and bonside; it now sits abandoned outside a house recently sold for £1.6m. Illegally imported to UK post #xylella ban on olives?
Tree vanity.

Sad to say that my year as Trainee Forester on the Chatsworth Estate has come to an end but happy to announce that from next week, I am being promoted to Assistant Forester!! Feel very lucky to be able to continue working on such a beautiful estate with such an awesome team 👊🌳

a thread about why you should NOT shop at fast fashion stores like romwe and shein and where you can shop instead!

@HelenNickols @BUForestry @JamesDWalmsley @BFSA_forestry Thank you very much! I really appreciate it!

[Peter🌳 @PeterRoe07]

I just wanted to do a quick little post to announce that I got a 2:1 in my BSc Forestry undergrad course and I couldn't be happier. I've absolutely loved every second of my time spent at Bangor and this is absolutely the cherry on top of it all. Thank you to everyone who helped😁

Artificial Lawns are spreading at a worrying rate, fuelling an even more rapid decline of biodiversity. Until Government make these dreadful plastic landscapes illegal, we'll need to work to help people make more informed decisions in their garden. Please share far and wide

[Peter🌳 @PeterRoe07]

@BUForestry @JamesDWalmsley @BFSA_forestry @BangorUni @BangorSNS As far as I'm concerned that's the highest honour anyone could hope for. How exciting!

[Peter🌳 @PeterRoe07]

@fairlieman @BUForestry @JamesDWalmsley @BFSA_forestry @TheICF That's the plan! I hope to never stop learning

[Peter🌳 @PeterRoe07]
