- Should We Be Clear Cutting Forests?

- Description
- Sweden has a long history of harvesting wood through clear cutting, for huge financial gain.
"As a general model, clear cutting is what is needed for commercial viability," said Oskar Lindström, a senior analyst at Danske Bank Markets, who specializes in Nordic Forest companies.
The average size of clear cutting in Sweden is 3.2 hectares (7.9 acres), according to the Swedish Forest Industries Federation. This allows forest owners to maximize the profitability of their land and enable the production of more fossil free products.
Yet the clear-cutting method has been condemned by scientists, environmental groups and even the European Union.

- Description
- Forests make up an important part of the Swedish economy. In 2020, the forestry industry accounted for 10% of Sweden’s exports.
Three-quarters of the Scandinvian country's forests are privately-owned, either by individuals or companies. This is paying off, as more investors look to the sector as an alternative investment.
But the most popular method for extracting the maximum value out of forests has come under fire by scientists, environmental groups and even the European Union. So, how can the nation balance its economic and environmental ambitions?

- Description
- Were London’s public spaces sold off to private developers? The question led to a heated debate in the U.K.'s capital, but the answer is more nuanced than it may seem.
Take the redevelopment of the iconic Heygate Estate in the Elephant and Castle area of south London. At its peak, the complex accommodated 3,000 people. But over the years, it began to lose its shine and earned a reputation for violent and antisocial behavior.
The entire complex was demolished and the majority of its tenants were evicted to make way for a regeneration process that would completely transform the area. By 2014, a new privatized 28-acre plot featuring flats, shops, public space areas and offices had emerged.
Hailed as a redevelopment success story by some, others like former resident Jerry Flynn question how increasing privatization in the U.K. capital offers less participation for locals.

- Description
- How can you tell if an open space is private or public? And should you care?
Privately-owned public spaces – or POPS – are pedestrianized areas open to the public but owned by a private entity. These private entities include corporations, property developers, real estate investment trusts, sovereign wealth funds or even pension funds.
Varying in size, they are controlled by the owner’s own security services and have different rules than traditional public spaces. They are typically located in larger cities; examples include Wynyard Quarter in Auckland, New Zealand, plazas at the Toronto-Dominion Centre in Canada, Dubai Marina in the United Arab Emirates, and the Liverpool One complex in the United Kingdom.
Often praised for their contemporary designs and collaboration with residents, redevelopments often have a positive impact on the economy. But their rise hasn't been good news for everyone.

“It was incredible. This is what I've dreamed of since I was a kid,” Norris told Bryer, as he described his first F1 race win at the Miami Grand Prix.
