I thought it was suggested that commentary on this subject should be brought to a different thread? When it is moved, I have a final thought on this subject.
There is no reason to believe that the benevolent and caring Japanese government will do any better to watch over forests than they they did watching over their nuclear plants that pretty much created a toxic ocean environment for the whole world to enjoy.
There is zero reason to have beautiful 250 year trees to be cut up into blades. The thing is sometimes someone has to raise voice to counter those who, for their own personal profit, are helping to destroy the environment that we and our children will live in.
I hope some players agree with me. What is often said is that it is practice that matters not the equipment.
So, this thread is for anyone who would like to post on the lumber industry and different practices on harvesting trees around the world. Perhaps it is about the woods used in table tennis blades and which woods cause the most damage to the eco system.
Or perhaps it is for richrf who seems to be very disturbed by the marketing of a few TT companies who claim to use 250 year old trees to make Hinoki blades.
Whatever the subject, if you have good information to present on how the manufacture of TT blades affects the world eco system, go ahead and post.
So far, I have not seen richrf post any factual information about any of this, but here is his chance to go research and find out what he can about this subject.
