'The Man Who Planted trees," a story by Jean Giono about a man who created a
forest in a remote area of France, I came across the passage:  

 

"The only serious danger to the work occurred during the war of 1939. As
cars were being run on gazogenes (wood-burning generators), there was never
enough wood. Cutting was started among the oaks of 1910. . ."

 

What was the impact of a million gasogenes on the forest of Europe during
the war? Has anyone seen any estimates?
