Hi Karl,
I think you're absolutely right about funding for the research being the sticking point. In botany there are always oodles of really simple questions that have never been answered, just because they are never top of the pile to receive the funding. There is always more pressing medical research to be done, and that's where the money goes.
I think though, that by having us all here discussing stuff online, we are actually part of that much-needed research. We are actively testing the products and demanding climate-friendly products, and that is hugely important in driving change. I think it's really brilliant that we're doing this.
Your thought about faster-growing tree sources reminds me of Olivier Patey switching to box wood. I wonder how that went, and whether that would be a better option for reversing climate change?
I do very much feel that clarinet playing is inherently a climate friendly activity. I mean the clarinet doesn't need a battery charged, and it's a very peaceful activity. As far as the big picture is concerned, I think we're really in a good place.
