Commissioner of the Guyana Forestry Commission (GFC) James Singh has dismissed complaints by loggers that Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS) quotas were curtailing production in the forestry sector.He said that to the contrary,Baltimore Orioles Adam Jones Jersey, loggers and saw millers were producing less than 50 per cent of the total sustainable annual production.“We can actually produce 1.2 million cubic meters annually under sustainable forest management guidelines but in 2012 we only produced 400,Authentic NFL Jerseys Wholesale,000 cubic meters,” he said.He added: “Our figures for the past five years, 2008 to 2012,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, state that our production has never surpassed 500,000 cubic meters so we are well below our sustainable limit.”“So we are very far behind.” He added that he wanted to make that point because of allegations in the print media that the LCDS and the agreement with Norway were curtailing production whereas the statistics show that there was much more scope for increased production and productivity.He said that the Commission has been doing a good job in sustainable forestry management. “We have had many international audits done here and the auditors have verified that we have the mechanisms and that these mechanisms are working.”“We have been honoring our international obligations such as the Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+),Cheap Jerseys Wholesale,??
