Forgot to include: I'm only too aware of very accurate and even more than very expensive gps toys, my surveyor uses them and has to charge $1000 per marker to pay for them :-)))
My efforts are DIY and on a zero extra-cost basis, any savings got to buy shoots (plugs).

In 10,000 years we have consumed 3/4 of the trees since coming out of the last ice age, going from some 30 trillion huge trees to 15 trillion toothpicks good only to cut 2x4's! This gives some sense of the dioxide absorbing greenery and capacity-destruction but if we look for the actual amount of wood and branches then we find 4 and 6 inch trunks where 4 FOOTERS once were! I suspect that in terms of board-feet or foliage we have destroyed over 80%. No need to look at Brazil for examples of the devastation, see here

for an idea of what north american forests were like before our race of locusts robbed it from the care of first-nations. Harvesting on public (crown i.e. people's) land should require a % of very large trunk sizes harvested, thus effectively limiting the cut when those have been over-rarified. In addition every human being should be charged with the planting of 1 tree per month throughout his or her life (say 1000 trees per person), such being the TRUE SCOPE of what we have allowed bean-counters and money-changers to do to our spaceship home.
