MR Credit 7: Certified Wood
The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is a worldwide organization that promotes the responsible management of working forests through the development of standards, a certification system, and trademark recognition. FSC was established in response to reduce forest loss and forest degradation.
To get this point, at least 50% of all wood building components must be certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.
** Keep in mind products certified by FSC only means that they are harvested from responsibly managed forests. It does not ensure that these wood products are not treated with chemicals.

It's a beautiful landscape, I think we need more time to come across the blog to enjoy each entry. I will love to bring more ideas in this blog, and I think you're right with the main point.
Why this forest haves tons of tumbleweed? Is the soil dying from thirst ? anyway wonderful landscape.
