Pulping the South

By: Carrere, Ricardo and Larry Lohmann

Industrial Tree Plantations and the World Paper Economy

Demand for paper is soaring. In its search for cheap wood to supply raw material, todayâ€™s pulp and paper industry is throwing its net ever wider across the world. One of the more disturbing results is the spread of fast-growing pulpwood plantations in the forests, pastures and farmlands of the South. Contesting the industry propagated notion that all tree-planting must be benign, this path-breaking book shows how the new plantations are contributing to impoverishment of people; degradation of soil, water and biodiversity; and rural strife in countries as diverse as Chile, South Africa and Indonesia. This bookâ€™s insights into the history, causes and workings of globalization in one of the worldâ€™s leading industries, and alternative papermaking will be of interest to activists, environmentalists, economists, geographers and development specialists alike.
