RT @SustainableTall: This is an incredible report from Denmark
It uses planetary boundaries to understand what embodied carbon reductions are needed to keep us below 1.5C of warming. In Denmark this reduction is from 480kgCO2e/m2 to 20kgCO2e/m2 in 10 years.

You could also chip the thinnings and use them as ramial wood chips for soil surface scattering to promote a beneficial reaction with the soil surface = a de facto fertiliser. See @Ben_Raskin & @GeorgeMonbiot’s latest books.
RT @WoollyMaggot: Beautiful trees, especially at this time of year, but a plantation nevertheless... To thin or not to thin.. Then burn the wood instead of oil/gas? Fancy balancing these objectives?

@jonburkeUK It certainly doesn't look 'beautiful'. Some trees would help. Better still some agroforestry. Solar and hens work well. Or sheep?

Interesting read. Similar discussions in the world of wood products which store carbon. Keep the credits to offset our own emissions (&inform our customers) or sell credits on open market? @CEIBois @TimberDevUK
RT @KateAgValuer: Thoughts from Gabe Brown in last week’s @FarmersWeekly on risks in measuring & selling soil carbon. Sell it via the supply chain, not as credits, he says.
