Preocupa la caída de la forestación en Mendoza
El inventario que hizo la Nación reveló que actualmente hay 6.197 hectáreas forestadas y hace 10 años eran 15.000.
La situación de la forestación en Mendoza quedó al desnudo cuando el inventario reflejó que actualmente en la provincia hay 6.197 hectáreas forestadas y 3.434 kilómetros de lo que se denomina cortinas, que son árboles que generalmente se plantan en línea para proteger frutales o viñedos. Todo esto generado en el marco de la ley de inversiones para bosques cultivados.
La situación es preocupante porque hace 10 años eran 15.000 las hectáreas forestadas en la provincia y eso nos indica que si no cambiamos esta realidad en 5 años vamos a tener una escasez de madera. Es una gran oportunidad para modificar la ley existente y planificar una plantación apuntando a la diversificación del uso de la madera", dijo Sergio Videla, titular de la Asociación de Empresarios de la madera local (ADEMA)

This is the Yakisugi (also known as Shou Sugi Ban), a method that consists in burning the surface of the wood to make it more resistant and attractive. Although it may seem contradictory, exposing wood to fire gives natural protection against moisture, insects and deterioration over time.

In the world there are millions of forests. Some are close to urban centers, others in remote and inaccessible places, but they all fulfill a key role: maintain the balance of the planet. They are literally the lung of the earth. When talking about a new forest, the first thing that comes to mind is usually reforestation, a recent plantation or the recovery of an area razed by fire. But this discovery is on another way. It is not a forest sown recently. It is an old forest, which was there for thousands of years, buried under the ice. And now, with the thaw caused by global warming, he has emerged again.
