“The Masoala Rain Forest is being looted of it’s irreplaceable endemic Rosewood trees. 1,000 trees a day are being ripped out from one of the worlds most bio-diverse habitats. Thousands of species are on the run and risk extinction as illegal loggers continue to strip the forest bare.
What an over reaction to making guitars. Trees on the run, 7000 trees a week ripped out.
Thats a lot of wood, Everyone in China learning to play Stairway to Heaven?
Load of BS
Unless somewhere in the world they are framing houses with rosewood, this lady is spewing crap.
A few years ago I bought about 10 board-ft of rosewood from a custom flooring craftsman for a small sailboat. Man, that is beautiful wood! Anyway, he is out of business now, and it wasn’t from lack of demand.
That may me laugh.
Seriously, an American standard - Gibson guitars, another victim of a hyper-eco law. As if we don’t have real issues.
Just like the hyperbole of the 70's when we were all told that tens of thousands
of acres of forest a day was being torn down and burned.
Then technology caught up and blew their lie out of the water.
Some treehuggers never got the meme.
