’Woodworking Experience Making a Cutting Board Using Yaotsu Wood’ by Rat Design Shop.
概要
The Importance of Consuming Wood While Coexisting HarmoniouslyNeglected forests, where sunlight does not reach the ground and remains dim, the ground floor has little to no grass growing, and the nutritionally deprived trees are too slender and weak to be used as building materials or for making tools. Such forests become inhospitable for wildlife, and the hardened soil can cause floods and landslides during heavy rains, leading to various problems. Artificial forests require proper management, including thinning out unnecessary trees. However, if there is no demand for timber as a mountain and forest resource, lumberjacks cannot sustainably cut trees. It is beneficial for humans, forests, and nature to watch over the long term and coexist skillfully while consuming wood. Therefore, it is essential to create 'new demands for forest resources.'
In this experience, we will observe the current state of artificial forests, understand the process of cutting trees to make products and think about the rich natural environment that healthy trees and forests provide us.
