Globally, I believe forests have declined since 1920. Harry is right, I think, about US forests.
Steve HP: "Our forests are being destroyed." Every year since the mid 1920's, the annual Forestry wood count has gone up. Each year we have more wood than we had before. Our forests are not being destroyed. They have increasing steadily for 80 years. -- http://magma.ca/~gpco/ http://www.scientists4pr.org/ Anyone who believes exponential growth can go on forever in a finite world is either a madman or an economist.--Kenneth Boulding
