tree conservation

Saving woodland ecosystems

Tree conservation is the protection and management of trees and forested areas to prevent destruction, promote healthy growth, and maintain ecological balance.

It encompasses efforts ranging from preserving old-growth forests to urban tree planting initiatives: The city's tree conservation program saved dozens of heritage oaks from development.

Tree conservation addresses concerns about biodiversity, climate change, and habitat loss.
