Environmental impact of firewood harvesting

Although users of the forest for millennia, it is only relatively recently that man has acquired an understanding of the multiple contributions of sylvan areas and forests, this ecosystem of great importance for his well-being. Having understood, from then on, that forest resources, although renewable, were not inexhaustible, it became essential to exploit them rationally. This is why methods and techniques have been put in place to ensure the sustainability of forests. It is quite obvious that for the forest to remain a source of life, a dynamic balance must be ensured between human needs and the capacity of this forest to meet these needs, the forests will be for people; given that we must pass on culture from generation to generation, these forests will also be for the planet, because let's have fun saying that the mango trees, avocado trees, coconut trees whose fruits we easily consume today are not us who necessarily planted them... Ultimately, this balance will lead to harmony between people and forests.
