Worried about global warming? I have one word for you. Trees. And if you are the type who only thinks in terms of profits, as in something you can take to the bank, I still have one word for you. Trees.


According to an article in The Economist, investors have started to put their money into trees. Endowments and pension funds are now including timber as a "hard asset" in their portfolios. And that’s not because they were touched by Al Gore’s movie. They are down-to-earth, ROI types.

The Paper Industries Corp. of the Philippines (Picop) asked the Supreme Court yesterday (SC) to reconsider its decision allowing mining operations on 2,756 hectares of forestland in Agusan del Sur. 


Cirilio Doronila, Picop’s legal counsel, cited in his 47-page motion for reconsideration that the land area is covered by the Mineral Production Sharing Agreement (MPSA) of Base Metals and should be closed to mining operations.
