I must not be getting the right news sources; can you explain more about
this?  *  On what grounds are these groups opposing the global treaty on
forests?
*  What are some essential elements of this treaty?
*  Who are the negotiating parties (who do they represent)?
*  Who has developed this treaty?

I would be very interested in a discussion on this subject.  Thank you for
more information.
