Europe is blessed with huge forests


<h2>Europe is blessed with huge forests.  Britain's were cut down long ago and we

now have few managed woods.  It is a marvel to see carefully managed forests

providing a steady supply of wood for energy, paper and manufacturing.  We have

watched the cycle of farming cycle - the hand-pruning of winter vineyards in in

sub-zero temperatures, fertilising the soil from the farmyards, the first spring

ploughing, acres of industrially grown mono-crops, cattle kept indoors throughout

the year and cattle out of doors the whole year.  We have still to solve the

mystery of the abundance pof pork on menus but not a pig to be seen in the

fields</h2>
