    Forestry in Ireland has never been so contentious. Over the last century the area of Irish woodland has increased tenfold, mostly through the planting of imported conifer species; government policy is to plant more trees to supply industry and to tackle climate change, both urgent priorities. But there has been a backlash from farmers, local communities, environmentalists and EU regulators. The rate of planting has plummeted. And up to one-third of new plantations in Ireland are failed forests that should never have been planted in the first place. How did we end up in this peculiar situation?
    Island of Woods traces the history of Irish forests over the last 10,000 years. It explains why Ireland lost so much of its forest cover, before a burst of tree-planting over the last few decades. It examines the state of Irish forestry today and sketches a way forward for our woods that balances commercial, environmental and social goals – a vision of a different type of forestry that could transform the Irish landscape and re-establish a genuine tree culture in the country.
    This engaging examination of Irish woodlands relates historical events to present-day concerns and controversies, drawing out crucial themes that continue to shape the Irish landscape.

    Our summary unravels the vast network of influence purportedly held by Dr. Fauci, one that extends across global health policy, prestigious institutions, and a cohort of the most powerful individuals and organizations globally. Through meticulous research, Kennedy presents a narrative where Dr. Fauci navigates the intricacies of global health, leveraging a financial powerhouse to allegedly shape narratives, control media, and dictate scientific outcomes on a global scale. 
    As you delve deeper into our summary, explore claims of dark partnerships formed in the corridors of power, from alleged alliances with pharmaceutical giants to reportedly orchestrating fraudulent studies. Kennedy unveils a landscape where, according to him, federal laws are bypassed and ethical boundaries crossed to foster personal and financial growth at the expense of the vulnerable. 
    Kennedy claims that the collaboration between Dr. Fauci and Bill Gates goes beyond mere association, morphing into an alleged powerhouse controlling a multi-billion dollar global vaccine market. The summary sheds light on assertions of a syndicate exercising unrestrained influence over global health policies, orchestrating narratives, and allegedly silencing any voice of dissent with an iron fist. 
    'The Real Anthony Fauci' seeks to awaken the populace to what Kennedy perceives as the realities behind the media portrayals, encouraging readers to question the established narratives and delve into what he presents as the untold story of a figure wielding unseen influence over a generation's health trajectory.
