They are also helping poor farmers with water and water management and Child Africa with funds to build schools. Better Globe are now developing a protocol for Makau trees that will provide cheap seedlings for poor famers that want to profit from planting trees.

Farmers will just get this amount we think are high because they can never access the international market by themselves. And if we are planting them as Carbon sinks, it just gives Americans, Canadians and Australians a chance to continue building thier industries. You see, we plant trees they continue developing themselves, this conservation business is just a whole new neocolonialism.<BR/>RoseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9317825.post-75229327421763755032007-06-08T03:20:00.000+03:002007-06-08T03:20:00.000+03:00My dad is an economist that devoted his whole life...My dad is an economist that devoted his whole life to Agroforestry.

I know, have an uncle who owns acres and acres of timber, but not in Kenya-he's in the low lying tropical-like region of South Carolina, US. Although, there are many people here in the States who don't fancy such types of lifestyles, my uncle makes an awfully good living and does not have to worry about finances. <BR/> <BR/>So, although I'm not familiar with the timber industry in Kenya what you're saying sounds like very practical and wise investment move, for the long haul.Beninhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00587080351614226889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9317825.post-66396799966655693442007-02-07T16:51:00.000+03:002007-02-07T16:51:00.000+03:00Interesting!
