The British invited German expert Dietrich Brandis to serve as the first Inspector General of Forests in India due to concerns over the unsustainable felling of trees by local traders. Brandis established the Indian Forest Service in 1864 and passed the Indian Forest Act of 1865, which divided forests into reserved, protected, and village categories to better manage forest resources for both commercial and local needs. He initiated scientific forestry practices that helped conserve India's forests.The National Forest

The National Forest is a large-scale reforestation project linking the ancient forests of Charnwood and Needwood across parts of central England. It aims to transform the formerly industrial and agricultural landscape into a third forested by planting over 6 million trees and restoring former mining sites. The forest supports rural diversification, increases woodland cover from 6% to over 17%, and has generated economic and environmental benefits including new jobs, tourism, and education opportunities for the region.Britain's Protected Trees

The family arrived in Austin's Colony in 1822 after a difficult voyage on the ship Lively, where they faced little food and water and many cattle died during a harsh winter. They qualified for 1,360 acres of land. The early years of 1822 and 1823 brought problems like the sinking of the Lively, disputes with Mexicans over cotton exports, and small lumber and cattle demands. However, 1824 was the most prosperous year for the colony due to bumper cotton crops and high demands for lumber and beef, with no major problems that year.Monalty house

Monalty House was built in 1624 as part of a leasing agreement and was occupied by Norman Steele from 1785 to 1801. It is a three story manor house with over eleven bedrooms that was expanded in the 18th century. Though there was a plan to convert it to a public health facility in 1927, it ultimately remained a private home and is still used as a house today.CZ - A New Wood Age

This document discusses the importance of trees and woodlands in Britain. It notes that 13,000 years ago, Britain had no trees after the last Ice Age. Trees like birch, aspen, willow, Scots pine, oak, and alder began colonizing Britain starting around 11,000 BC. The document questions how many trees are needed to constitute a woodland and what is missing from an image showing trees. It concludes by providing resources for organizations involved in tree planting and woodland conservation efforts.Kristins stuff

Charleston, South Carolina is known as "The Holy City" due to the many churches throughout the city, particularly the steeples that dot the skyline. It also earned this name because it was one of the few cities in the original 13 colonies that provided religious tolerance, though restricted to non-Catholics. Charleston has a long history dating back to its founding in 1670 and was an important city in the Civil War, experiencing damage but not falling until 1865. Today, Charleston emphasizes preservation of its historical architecture and sites and has worked to revitalize its economy since struggling for much of the 20th century.World Cup 2006

Trees play an important role in providing oxygen, food, shelter for wildlife, and materials for human use. However, deforestation due to human population growth and overharvesting is reducing forests faster than new trees can grow. If we don't take steps to protect forests by planting more trees, reducing pollution, and finding alternatives to cutting down forests, there may not be enough trees for future generations.Metso25052011

Sustainable Innovation with Immersive LearningLeonel Morgado
油
Prof. Leonel and Prof. Dennis approached educational uses, practices, and strategies of using immersion as a lens to interpret, design, and planning educational activities in a sustainable way. Rather than one-off gimmicks, the intent is to enable instructors (and institutions) to be able to include them in their regular activities, including the ability to evaluate and redesign them.
Immersion as a phenomenon enables interpreting pedagogical activities in a learning-agnostic way: you take a stance on the learning theory to follow, and leverage immersion to envision and guide your practice.BUSINESS QUIZ PRELIMS | QUIZ CLUB OF PSGCAS | 9 SEPTEMBER 2024

Forests
- 1. Teacher Information! Necessary materials: PowerPoint Guide
- 2. Our Forests and Their Products Pgs 235-242 in Ch.19 of Managing Our Natural Resources Rangelands, Forests, & Fire
- 3. Students will be able to Define forest Describe the six forest regions in the U.S.
- 4. The 1st Forestry Industry in the U.S. Began with the 1st European to set foot in North America Leif Ericson Leif and his Vikings established logging camps in northeastern Canada Harvested wood shipped back to Europe 600 years prior to the settlers of Jamestown
- 5. Forests Occur where moisture is sufficient for tree growth Arid regions like the Great Plains too dry to support forests Complex community of trees and other organisms forest House = tree, city = forest A housing development city Clump of trees forest
- 6. Forest: Friend and Enemy Dense forests made farming & settlement difficult But trees supplied materials for houses, forts, and ships Source of wild game and fruit
- 7. Forests Today 749 million acres in the U.S. forested = 1/3 of the U.S. 2/3 of this = commercial forest 250 million acres of commercial forest are actually usable 1/3 (250 million acres) = noncommercial forest Commercial Forest that has economic potential
- 8. Who owns commercial forestland? Private landowners 58% Government 28% Forest product industries 27% Weyerhauser, Kraft, Union-Camp Maine & New Hampshire > 80% forested Nebraska & North Dakota < 2% forested
- 9. What trees are used in forestry? Two general kinds Softwoods Hardwoods Gymnosperms = conifers Douglas fir, blue spruce, yew Angiosperms = flowering, broad-leafed trees Oak, maple, beech, apple, cherry Most timber production softwoods
- 10. U.S. Forest Regions Different species of trees have different requirements Different environmental conditions forest regions Climate Altitude Soil type 6 forest regions in continental U.S.
Editor's Notes
- #2: *All relevant terms are bolded.
- #6: Just like a group of houses dont equate a city, a group of trees doesnt equal a forest. A forest includes trees and all other plants and animals that interact to create the forest system. A forest is a balanced ecosystem in which trees and plants photosynthesize to generate food that is used by themselves and animals. Decaying plants and animals release nutrients that are taken up again by the plants.
- #7: Forests were a formidable barrier to European settlers in America. Forests had to be cleared to create room for crops.
- #8: Commercial forests are forests that have the potential to be economically productive. This doesnt mean that the forest is being used this way. Much of the commercial forestland is in small parcels near homes or parks. Noncommercial forest might be on very rough terrain or on swampy land or be part of a park or preservation area. Much of the forestland of today is being taken over for urban and industrial development.
- #10: The terms softwood and hardwood have little bearing on the actual hardness of the wood!
