A group of women walking out of a forest in the Western Ghats of southwestern India with loads of firewood (and a few leafy vegetables). Undeniably, a basic need. Indisputably, uncontrolled exploitation of a finite resoure that will ultimately be depleted. Sadly, firewood can be managed like any other forest resource.
