ALTERNATIVE FOR DESTRUCTION:
GLOBAL FOREST REVOLUTION
Internet forum producing alternative forest reports for the UN

The crisis of forests and forest use on the Earth is obvious. We are
losing the forest cover in terms of biodiversity, biomass and hectars.
We are losing possibilities for the future and future generations.

It seems quite obvious that this crisis has not been registered by the political leaders in different countries. A good example of the severity of the problem is the UN Forum on Forests which should be the global board to meet and solve these problems.

This UNFF has its fourth session in May in Geneva and all countries have been asked to produce a national report to present the situation in their countries. However, most of the countries did not produce any material and those who did were not always so seriously trying to seek the truth. For more information, see:
http://video.elonmerkki.net/forestforum/uk/ff2.html

This UNFF process is again a sad example that multinational forest corporations clearly have too dominating a role in shaping global forest policy. It is clear that by that way there is little chance of facing and solving the great problems related to forests in different
countries.

The People´s Forest Forum is an initiative to make a real difference, to seek the true picture about the true situation and available sustainable solutions.

What can you do?
Please visit the workshops and look what is the present knowledgeabout forests in your country: http://video.elonmerkki.net/forestforum/uk/ff2.html

Be free to make your comments and contributions in other workshops, as well. Our aim is to produce a DVD-report out of the materials of the workshops to be given to the UN Forum on Forests next May.

And still one important request. Please visit the address: http://video.elonmerkki.net/forestforum and sign the petition for the UN demanding a global ban on GM trees. Please forward also the action alert about that campaing to your friends and networks.

We don´t need GM trees to solve the problems. We need a different solution. We need global forest revolution to change the course.

Join with us in this work. Together we can make a difference.
