It's Time To Pay Our Debt To Trees

It is time to pay our debt… with interest.

Many researchers believe that if it weren't for the amazing versatility of wood, civilization as we know it would never have developed.


"Wood is humanity's oldest natural resource. We have no older or deeper debt."

- Hugh Johnson, author of The World of Trees


It is time to show our gratitude and respect for our global tree community, and pay our debts... with interest. 

If that is even possible, considering tree's immense contribution to our well-being since the dawn of humanity.

I suggest that we at least try before it is too late.
