Galicia has a strong forest sector. Burning wood is cheaper because it only serves to grinding, either for manufacturing conglomerates such as to produce pulp. This is the largest productive sector Galician and both industries, the pulp mill and the clusters, the existence of forest fires is their insurance to obtain raw materials at low cost.

Interests:

Getting cheaper raw material purchased the burning wood, causing also a price drop of the green wood, breaking the market.

If we know who are ultimately responsible for the wave of fires affecting Galicia would be that the regional government, which owns the data became public what is the fate of both truck burned wood, to which companies are going and Price was acquired.

would also be interesting to know how to integrate the burnt wood in the production cycle, if necessary, the use of bleaching (chlorine derivatives) for its use, and ultimately a study in depth (independent) on the proportion wood burned in these processes and the profitability obtained when using it.

The huge jaws of the lumber industry swallow big mouthfuls of forest a day. Galicia can not be the pantry of these monsters of cellulose, which dictate the management and operation of the Galician mountains at your convenience. The richness of these companies is the poverty of rural areas fleece.

Solutions:

• The logging a tree is an ecological damage must be minimized and, where possible, repaired. To this should be a tax special like the one that weighs on oil, which is attributable cubic meter wood. Small impact on the furniture industry, which uses high-cost wood and in which it would dilute this sopreprecio, but costly for the industries of paper and chipboard, which use large amounts of cheap wood , and would have an impact on the consumer, thereby curbing irresponsible alcohol consumption. This tax would cover the repopulation of the Galician hills.

• in step with rising paper prices, articulate an awareness campaign on the rational use this well, preventing misuse as mass print advertising, which do not involve promoting deforestation (telemática. ..).

• Ban all trade in wood smoke . This would require at first cut green wood in place, but it is the conditio sine qua non just rowing with forest fires. The trees in a burned forest should be killed and crushed in situ to fertilize the land and proceed to ....

• automatic restocking burnt mountain. That management has an obligation by law short-term repopulating a whole area to be burned, following guidelines for this environmental diversity and regeneration of Atlantic forest. Afforestation will be paid by the various administrations, municipalities also currently profit from the sale of wood burned. Thus, a municipality with high rates of fire will not win more investment, but have to replace what was unable to protect its inefficiency. We must end the current situation, in which municipalities are following a fire that spread among the families of people a good amount, where few houses and lots of the affected area can reach a considerable amount (bread for today .. .).

• absolute prohibition to restock with native species or back to the environmental criteria.

• The reforestation must be done through a public company with workers on permanent contracts (not to create another group of interest.)
  

• Control timber imports for the local processing industry. As we worry about the integrity of our forests, we must also take care that our industry does not use wood from illegal logging, often in primary forest (of altítisimo ecological value), to turn it into pulp or cheap furniture. Requirement that all imports meet international standards on sustainable forestry (FSC ), doing business ecological attack in other parts of the globe.

With wood you can do business, good business, but in a regulated and sustainable. With this business we all win, we win more, and not lose the forest.
