Hello Ponokee,

So we have swung from retirement hobbies to forest management. OK.

I guess your main point is the American Indians altered their environment:

To solve that embarrassment, everybody pretended that the Indians had never altered the landscape. These pioneer ecologists, as Stuart Udall once called them, did not manipulate the land. But now, in recent years, the wisdom of Indian land management policies is increasingly difficult to cover up."

This is a interesting idea, but I can't get a feel for the timeframe or the extent of the changes. Do you have any more information on this?

For comparisons sake, "more than 580,000 square kilometers (224,000 square miles) of Amazon forest has [been] destroyed in Brazil since 1980."
