Abstract
Considering the threat of climate change, many landowners and forest managers want to manage forests for the greatest carbon benefit. The question often boils down to: is it better for the climate to manage a forest actively or passively? An active approach involves using silviculture to intentionally alter the composition, structure, and/or growth of the forest and may include removal of trees for personal use or to sell. A passive approach is more hands-off and allows the forest to develop on its own. In a passively managed forest, wood is not harvested.
