Sustainable forestry

Sustainable forestry - often relates to natural cover and forest where seed trees are left for natural regeneration. There is often powerful argument as to what is truly sustainable. The other aspect is that usually the question of sustainability is the looking in a very narrow sense at just the timber resource - the complex ecology of the forest and its systems is usually ignored. The sensitive ecosystems are not all about the tall trees but rather the whole mosaic of forest entities.
