The report does not present any warnings of imminent environmental collapse. However, it does note that some local and global thresholds are being crossed, and that negative environmental trends could lead to dramatic and irreversible damage to some of the ecosystems and services that we take for granted. In other words, the current insufficient rate of progress observed over the past few decades in addressing environmental issues may severely undermine our ability to deal with potential future negative impacts.

A graphical record of Ireland's role in illegal-logging. Good intentions are simply not enough. What we require is a robust framework which will translate aspirations into action. It needs to be driven from the very top in a coordinated integrated fashion and it needs to be grounded in legislation. The ‘development’ rationale of this presentation pivots around a number of key issues & challenges: wood & poverty, wood and energy, wood & livelihoods/construction, wood & health, wood & education, wood & biodiversity, wood & sustainability, wood & climate-change, wood & conflict/war and wood & economic development.
