Humans as living beings are obliged to protect the ecosystem and the surrounding natural environment.
One of them is forest. Humans often use forests in their daily life. For example, forests are used to prevent erosion and maintain soil fertility.
According to Endang Suhendang in the book Introduction to Forestry Science: Forestry as a Science, Activities, and Field of Work (2013), forest is land covered by tall plants and trees.
