rainforest preservation
Saving tropical woodlands
Rainforest preservation is the effort to protect tropical forests from destruction, particularly from logging, agriculture, and development.
The term emphasizes maintaining these ecosystems intact rather than merely managing their decline: The organization focuses on rainforest preservation in the Amazon basin.
Preservation implies keeping something unchanged, distinguishing it from conservation, which may allow sustainable use.
