Precious Hardwood Notice: A 2002 study revealed that
between 75 to 85 percent of the hardwood production and 30 to 50
percent of the pine wood production in Honduras is illegal.
In a more recent 2005
publication, which documented a one-year
illegal
logging
undercover investigation carried out by the
Environmental Investigation Agency, a government expert on the mahogany
trade in Honduras stated, "The only remaining viable populations are
in national parks or reserves."
Therefore, I urge all of you, please refrain from buying wood products from
developing countries, in particular, the much coveted and once abundant
Honduras
mahogany.
