Connecting City Sprawl~Urban Forests, Trails & Riverparks
Another from At the Threshold:
Two dimensions of sustainability and forests interrelate with each other.
1. One is the contribution that forests make to an overall, holistic vision of sustainability and the practical manner in which they provide much of the natural elements within a sustainable world. Healthy woodlands swarm and teem with wildlife and a wide variety of biota. The interaction among them-from breathing to food to waste-forms an unimaginable abundance of activity that range from subatomic to species.
2. The other is sustainable forestry itself in which specific, long-range sustainable practices of managing a woodland, large or small, insure that one leaves at least as much as one began with.
One is a sustainable society. The other is a sustainable forest. They intertwine and reinforce each other.
