Trees convert carbon dioxide into oxygen so that we can breathe. This is part of the importance and benefits of ensuring that our trees are protected. Finding a healthy balance between using what is needed and sustaining is always a good choice.

1. produce lumber
   mass extinction
2. destruction
   conservation

Conservation is a huge goal in forestry, as it is important to keep our trees healthy for both ourselves and the Earth. Without them, we wouldn't be able to thrive!

1. an umbrella
   underside
2. closed canopy
   relief

This is called a closed canopy. The branches are usually so thick at the canopy level that even light has a hard time shining through to the ground. This makes it darker in these very covered areas.

1. paperwork
   team building
2. taxes
   making tough decisions

In forestry, decision making is extremely important, as you'll be determining many factors upon making one. You must always consider the effect that something may have on people, wildlife and the forest itself.

2. backpack sprayer
   ketchup bottles

Backpack sprayers are useful tools for forestry professionals as they can easily transfer plenty of chemical onto an area of plants. They're often used with pesticides as well.

1. a job title
   an action
2. a type of tree

1. the highest layer of the forest
   a umbrella like tree
2. a machine used for cutting

1. pollution
   flooding
2. smog

A mature tree is ready to be cut down and taken out of the forest. In contrast, an immature tree is the opposite, and it is still growing up.

1. leaves
   the trunk
2. roots
   the ground surrounding it

Defoliators attack the leaves in order to kill a tree. You may know them better as caterpillars and other tiny insects that feed on trees. While they are important to the ecosystem, they are needed in moderation. There can be a point where there are too many of them for the forest to handle.

1. farmer's land

   to help the wood become high grade
2. to control where a tree falls
   to give the animals of the forest a home

Hinge wood is used to control where a tree falls. It's a technique that is done through cutting the tree with a chain saw.

1. hypsometer
   a chainsaw
2. a ruler
   a tape measure

A hypsometer is a gadget you'll want to have on you if you work in forestry. It works off the calculations of angles in order to determine the height.
