I'm Brazilian, I live a few miles from an area (Mata Atlântica) where most of the original rain forest was destroyed to grow european pineapples (it's better for paper because it grows faster, the native trees take literally centuries to grow). This is what you read about as "managed woodland". Much of the fauna and flora that existed here a few decades ago are now only found in books or zoos.

I can see the evidence to help me decide by literally looking at the window.

That's actually interesting on a wider note: are those FSC woodland?
