I was told a while back the lack of trees in the UK was because so many were cut down to heat homes until coal was used for home heating.

(I heard this from a ranger at Jamestown VA, the early colonists there made glass to sell back to England because the wood was so plentiful they could burn wood to make glass and still have plenty of wood for cooking, heating, etc. )

And building etc. The UK as a whole is about 13% woodland - with Scotland being 18% -so it’s not exactly treeless, but that’s a lot less than many other industrialised countries
