The UN FAO Forestry Department's comprehensive compilation of forestry statistics on a worlwide basis is probably the most widely used source of information for global and regional trends in forest resource use. A summary of the FAO's Forest Resources Assessment 2000 can be found at: ftp://ftp.fao.org/unfao/bodies/cofo/cofo15/X9835e.doc (Warning: this file is around 1750k).

For those interested in forestry issues, 'Ask a Forester' is a free service provided by the Global Association of Online Foresters. The aim of the GAOF is to help you to make friends with other people interested in forestry from all corners of the world and to promote all aspects of forestry. You can access this service on the following web site address: http://www.foresters.org/ask.htm
