Another interesting example. Good find Ian. It mentions the 'conquest' of Americas, as well as the Mongol invasion. Mind, to get it into perspective, the latter accounts for only one year of the current global consumption of carbon, so re-forestation agenda now would need to be mega-serious to compensate. Presumably someone has done some sums on this, but I haven't come across it. From my worm's-eye view, and if at all possible, it seems this is likely to be a mighty uphill struggle, especially in light of the current de-forestation in Amazon, Indonesia and elsewhere ... Cheers
