Produktbeschreibung

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Theft of wood has become a major problem in North America, from the Pacific Northwest to the eastern and southern United States. It has become a problem in every national forest, according to forest officials.

#2 There are many forms of natural theft in the world, and forests are no exception. The Forest Service estimates that $100 million worth of wood is poached yearly from public lands in the United States, and $1 billion worth of wood is poached yearly globally.

#3 Poaching is a property crime, but it is unique in its bounty and setting. When old-growth trees are poached, they become stolen goods, and their impact on the environment is far-reaching.

#4 I wanted to understand why someone would steal a tree, and the answer I found was rooted in the disintegration of community in the face of economic and cultural change.
