Stabilizing effect on the world´s climate
• fossil fuels burned -> release carbon dioxide -> trees change carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugar
![Page 9: Table of contents – Forests and climate change – Sustainable forest management – Biodiversity and forests – Tourism and forests](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649c755503460f949293de/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Sustainable forest management
• Replant trees which were cut down• Avoid deforestation• Only cut down trees that grow fast enough• Increase forest areas - Plant more trees than
you cut down• Cut down trees which are dead or sick
![Page 10: Table of contents – Forests and climate change – Sustainable forest management – Biodiversity and forests – Tourism and forests](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649c755503460f949293de/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Right and wrong use of wood resource
• Use handkerchief instead of tissue • Do not throw aways notebooks/exercise
books, which aren`t filled up and recycle them then
• Use every part of the tree that´s cut down• Recycle paper• Write on both sides of a paper• Do not cut down forest just because of money
