The Importance and Conservation of Forests

Forests are very useful. They supply lumber which is used for building
houses, stones, offices, and other building houses, stones, offices, and
other buildings. Some forest trees give materials for making pulp,
paper, wallboard and furniture, rattan, gum, and firewood. Medicinal
plants are also taken from forests.
The government and every community are duty-bound to conserve
forests. Cutting of young trees and clearing of land through kaingin
must be strictly prohibited. Planting of new trees to replace those that
have been cut should be observed. Further studies to improve forest
conservation is therefore desired.
