Environnement et politique forestière: quelques aspects

Économie rurale, 1978, vol. 127, issue 1, 50-53

Abstract: [fre] La forêt est considérée principalement comme une source de bois pour l'industrie. Cette priorité mérite réflexion. Le matériau bois lui-même a des propriétés intéressantes pour l'environnement, mais sa production intensive modifie profondément la forêt. Par ailleurs, on constate une certaine redistribution spatiale des surfaces boisées : régression autour des villes et des zones industrielles, extension importante dans les zones en crise agricole. Ces deux phénomènes modifient profondément les paysages et les cadres de vie. [eng] Some aspects of environment and woodland policy - The forest is considered mainly as a source of wood for industry. This priority deserves thought. Wood as a material has properties that are of interest for the environment but its intensive production profoundly modifies forest-land. Moreover there is a certain spatial redistribution of wood-land ; there is less around towns and industrial zones and a considerable increase in areas of agricultural crisis. These two phenomena profoundly modify the landscape and living conditions.
