All this vibrant tranquility rapidly began to vanish, however, as humanity made further and further inroads into the resources of the forest. Larger and larger sur- faces were laid bare for agriculture but, as long as this was on a relatively small scale, the damage to the environment was slight. Sometimes this clearing was for other pur- poses. When Henry VIII ordered the massive expansion of the Royal Navy in the early 16th century, for example, two thousand mature oak trees were required to build each vessel, virtually denuding England of the vast oak forests, whose size and density was recorded by the Romans at the time of their invasion in 54BC. The forest thus was seen as an unlimited repository of useful materials, and no thought was given to the conditions vital for its continued existence or to the effect of its removal. This was despite the fact that in many ways there was a greater affinity for Nature in earlier times and a greater knowledge of timber, as the follow- ing quotation taken from the records of an Austrian master cartwright written in 1843 shows2. There are only three days suited to kiln-drying in the year: April 3rd, July 30th and St Catherine's day. The latter is also good for casting ball and shot. To make sure that timber is solid and firm it should be felled during the first 8 days after the new moon, if this is in a 'soft sign' (i.e.in any of the zodiacal signs of Virgo, Pisces, Gemini or Libra). To make sure that timber does not rot after felling, there are only three days in the year when it can be felled. The first day after the Conversion of St. Paul (26th January) and the 10th and 13th of February. To obtain incombustible timber, it should be felled the first day in March, when the Moon still has 48 hours to wane. The best day for felling timber so that it does not shrink is the third day in autumn when day- light is reducing and the Moon waxes above the first quarter. In order that there should be good regrowth, firewood should be cut in October during the first quarter of the rising Moon. 17: Forestry - A Noble or Ignoble Art? 225 Saw logs should be cut under the rising sign of Pisces. They should be leached out in water under the sinking signs of Pisces or Cancer. So that it does not shrink, timber should be felled when the Moon is three days old, on a Friday and under the sign of Cancer. The straight and true wood required by cartwrights, coopers and the like, should be felled under a new Moon and the signs of Scorpio or Cancer. The wood will then remain firm and solid. To ensure that timber does not swell up, it should be felled in November on the first and second days before the new Moon. Over the centuries, however, the rape of the forest grew apace, deserts were created where legendary fertility and productivity once held sway. Forests always precede civili- sation, and deserts are the evidence of its passing. Whole nations were uprooted and had to move elsewhere in their search for subsistence. Fortunately in those days there was somewhere else to go, because the world's population was still relatively small. But such is not the case today when we are so many and yet, despite all the historic proof of the effects of deforestation on a large scale, we still continue to remove it at an alarming rate as though, like lemmings, we wish to hasten our own extinction. When someone dies the bell tolls. When the forest dies and with it a whole people, then no-one lifts a finger.3 Viktor Schauberger Forestry, the husbanding and conserving of the vital national and international assets of the forest should be regarded as foremost amongst professions. Apart from water resources management, it is forestry, above all other disciplines, that is responsible for maintaining the stability of the global climate and Earth's land surfaces. The science of forestry was born in the early 19th century as the Swiss inaugurated a large-scale reafforestation program to rectify the enormous depredations caused by the massive removal of great trees during Napoleon's passage through the Alps.
