Generally timber should only be bought from countries or regions where annual local, regional or national deforestation rates are higher than 0.25%. Exceptions to this rule may apply in areas where war, civil unrest and other conditions temporarily prevents significant deforestation. Please see FAO "State of the World's Forests" http://www.fao.org/docrep/011/i0350e/i0350e00.htm for more information
