These forests are essentially tree farms. There is no bio diversity and no deciduous trees growing in from the side. The forest will be felled for wood long before a deciduous tree would have time to grow. It's a travesty. Come to Ireland and see for yourself.

Then the real problem is that this really isn't "afforestation" at all and what trees are being planted is irrelevant.
