logging

Logging refers to the practice of cutting down trees for timber and wood products. It is an essential industry that provides materials for construction, furniture, and paper. However, logging can have significant environmental impacts, such as habitat destruction, loss of biodiversity, and climate change. Sustainable logging practices aim to balance the need for wood with the protection of forests, ensuring that trees are harvested responsibly and can regenerate. Proper management techniques help maintain forest health, support wildlife, and mitigate negative effects on the ecosystem while still meeting economic demands for timber.
