Watching Frédéric Back's animation of '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?
