The Russian Forest


Russian Forestry is a collection of Russian industries related to wood production and processing. As one of the oldest sectors of the country's economy, Russia's timber industry still generates about $20 billion a year. Russia has more than a fifth of the world's forests, making it the world's largest forest country. According to 2015 data, the total forest area exceeded 885 million hectares, representing 45% of the country's territory. Wood reserves in the region were 82 billion cubic meters.


 A significant part of the industry's income is formed by the export of wood raw materials. For a long time, Russia was the main supplier of wood raw materials in Europe. However, according to a 2012 study by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the Government of the Russian Federation, the potential of Russian forests is underutilized, with Russia accounting for less than 4% of world trade in forest products. As part of Russia's total industrial output, the Russian wood industry sector ranks 7th in terms of production and 5th in terms of domestic exports. The main product of Russian forestry is wood, representing approximately 75-80% of all wood exports. Forest cutting is the main direction of the entire forest complex. In the late 1980s, the Soviet Union was the world's second largest timber exporter, after the United States. As a result of many economic changes in the last decade, Russia rose to 6-7th place in the world on this indicator.

Small City Yoro Rain of Fish

Image
The small town of Yoro in Honduras has had very strange weather every year for the past 100 years. "Lluvia de peces" or "rain of fish" is an annual meteorological phenomenon that causes hundreds of fish to rain from the sky onto city streets after heavy storms, usually in May or June. The phenomenon of "raining fish" or "raining animals" is commonly known and has been reported around the world for centuries. However, there are few scientific explanations for why these phenomena occur. One hypothesis suggests that fish like lluvia de peces are caused by tornadoes moving over water and picking up small underground creatures, usually fish and frogs, and depositing them elsewhere. However, tanks are not known for transporting goods over long distances under water. This doesn't help explain Yoro's fishing weather. Because the fish washed up there don't belong in the local rivers and streams. If the conv...
