Today the Government launch a consultation over their idea to sell off all publicly-owned forests that the Forestry Commission look after.

Save Our Woods logoVB first brought this to your attention back in November 2010. Since then, nearly a quarter of a million people have signed the petition highlighted in the article.

The Island’s own Virtual Ranger has also written about this again recently.

Beyond the 38-degrees petition, the Website, Save Our Woods is a gathering point for all people wanting to find out further information about the proposed sell off.
