“There has now emerged a global call for restoration of deforested lands, given the growing recognition that forests provide a disproportionate amount of the services—drinking and irrigation water, climate
change mitigation, stormwater management, and recreation—that allow humanity to survive in the long term.”
― Daniel C Esty, A Better Planet: Forty Big Ideas for a Sustainable Future

“If, as I believe, natural regrowth has to be the basis for the renaissance of the world’s trees, then the custodians of that process must be the people who live in, among and from them.”
― Fred Pearce, A Trillion Trees: Restoring Our Forests by Trusting in Nature

“Large-scale reforestation of the Scottish hills and uplands through natural regeneration offers a tantalising prospect in terms of recovering our lost biodiversity, balancing our carbon budget and, I would argue, an opportunity to reinvigorate the economy of remoter rural areas. All that stands in the way are medieval laws designed centuries ago to prevent poaching and exclude people, and a forestry sector that follows, blindly, the corporate industrial forestry model.”
