Sustainable forestry is a method of managing forests that aims to meet current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to enjoy and use forest resources. This approach balances the economic, social, and environmental aspects of forest management, ensuring that trees are harvested responsibly while preserving biodiversity and ecosystem health. Practices in sustainable forestry include selective logging, which allows some trees to remain standing, and replanting trees after harvesting. By protecting habitats for wildlife and maintaining soil quality, sustainable forestry supports local communities and contributes to climate change mitigation, making it a vital part of environmental conservation efforts.
