A compendium of Rainforest information, which is required reading for prospective WOOD holders, due to the size of their holdings in Brazil and Peru. Links at bottom of page discuss many aspects of the Rain forest, including economic values and benefits. (This is where the following evaluation is found:
"The latest statistics show that rainforest land converted to cattle operations yields the land owner $60 per acre and if timber is harvested, the land is worth $400 per acre. However, if these renewable and sustainable resources are harvested, the land will yield the land owner $2,400 per acre.")

Posters to Avoid:
RJishere (on RB) - makes frequent incendiary posts about WOOD management, insults shareholders, all the while claiming perfection in his own investment and life choices. Many WOOD longs would advise ignoring RJishere, even those who are open to constructive criticism, backed up by facts.
