Wood and the Environment

Description

Wood is one of our oldest natural resources. Woodlands and forests cover about one-fifth of the earth's surface. We use wood to make buildings, boats, furniture, carvings, paper, and many other useful substances. This book looks at the impact that wood harvesting and processing has on the environment and the importance of managing forests successfully so that we do not run out of wood in the future.
