Synopsis
Positive Impact Forestry is a primer for private woodland owners and their managers on managing their land and forests to protect both ecological and economic vitality. Moving beyond the concept of ""low impact forestry,"" Thom McEvoy brings together the latest scientific understanding and insights to describe an approach to managing forests that meets the needs of landowners while at the same time maintaining the integrity of forest ecosystems. ""Positive impact forestry"" emphasizes forestry's potential to achieve sustainable benefits both now and into the future, with long-term investment superseding short-term gain, and the needs of families -- especially future generations -- exceeding those of individuals. Thom McEvoy offers a thorough discussion of silvicultural basics, synthesizing and explaining the current state of forestry science on topics such as forest soils, tree roots, form and function in trees, and the effects of different harvesting methods on trees, soil organisms, and sites. He also offers invaluable advice on financial, legal, and management issues, ranging from finding the right forestry professionals to managing for products other than timber to passing forest lands and management legacies on to future generations. Positive Impact Forestry helps readers understand the impacts of deliberate human activities on forests and offers viable strategies that provide benefits without damaging ecosystems. It speaks directly to private forest owners and their advisers and represents an innovative guide for anyone concerned with protecting forest ecosystems, timber production, land management, and the long-term health of forests. Named the ""Best Forestry Book for 2004"" by the National Woodlands Owners Association, Positive Impact Forestry is a primer for private woodland owners and their managers on managing their land and forests to protect both ecological and economic vitality., Positive Impact Forestry offers private landowners, forest managers, and conservation-minded professionals a clear, practical roadmap for managing woodlands in ways that sustain both ecological health and long-term economic value. Rather than focusing solely on low-impact practices, Thom McEvoy introduces a forward-thinking approach that actively enhances the vitality of forest ecosystems while meeting the real-world needs of families, communities, and future generations. Grounded in the latest forestry science, this comprehensive guide explains how decisions about harvesting, soil management, and silviculture can influence everything from biodiversity to soil organisms to timber quality. McEvoy presents core concepts--like forest soils, tree physiology, and regeneration dynamics--in a highly accessible format, making the science understandable and actionable for non-specialists and seasoned professionals alike. The book also addresses key financial and legal considerations, offering guidance on working with forestry professionals, diversifying revenue beyond timber, and ensuring that land management legacies can be passed on across generations. Case studies and examples help illustrate how values-driven forestry practices can create measurable benefits over time--without compromising the ecological integrity of the land. Recognized by the National Woodland Owners Association as the "Best Forestry Book for 2004," Positive Impact Forestry remains a trusted resource for anyone committed to thoughtful, sustainable forest stewardship that balances today's goals with tomorrow's responsibility., Thom McEvoy offers a primer of practical information on the management of forest lands with the goal of creating positive impacts on forest ecosystems.

- u***b (73)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThis is a review of the seller. They are honest. It is appreciated. We need more proof like that in the world. Background: the book was advertised as signed by the author. It was not. Before sending, they contacted me and told me it was not signed. A lesser individual would have forged a signature.The Genesis of Justice - Alan M. Dershowitz Signed 1st edition VG/G (Nr. 388440798707)
- u***t (154)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufShipped quickly and got here quicker than estimated initially. Packaging was spot-on and secure, resulting in a product that was exactly as described. Was happy to find an old copy in great shape. Tremendous value!
- 5***- (2)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe package was ripped half way down the side when delivered but it was most likely due to the mail carrier. I would suggest packaging books in boxes to prevent this in the future. Otherwise no complaints! The book came as described in the description.Scorebuilders PT Exam The Complete (Nr. 387867724638)
