Is there any offset in relation to peat soils and what we are sequestering and then the importation of wood chip from Brazil in vast quantities? Is there any offset? Does anybody take into consideration where we stop one line - for instance in peat, never mind the wood chip? When we are importing peat to replace what we have stopped harvesting, is there a correlation within the Department as to what footprint is garnered by importing it versus harvesting it locally?
