The National Forest (England) : ウィキペディア英語版 | The National Forest (England)
The National Forest is an environmental project in central England run by The National Forest Company. Areas of north Leicestershire, south Derbyshire and southeast Staffordshire, are being planted, in an attempt to blend ancient woodland with new plantings to create a new national forest. It stretches from the western outskirts of Leicester in the east to Burton upon Trent in the west, and is planned to link the ancient forests of Needwood and Charnwood. == The National Forest Company== The National Forest Company is a not-for-profit organisation established in April 1995 as a company limited by guarantee.〔(The National Forest, About us )〕 It is supported by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA), with the aim of converting one third of the land within the boundaries of the National Forest (135 km², 33,000 acres) to woodland, by encouraging landowners to alter their land use. It is described as "a forest in the making" and it is hoped to increase tourism and forestry-related jobs in the area. Around 8 million trees have been planted, tripling the woodland cover from 6% to around 18%.
