Abstract Forests are biologically diverse natural systems that contain some of the world's most diverse biological areas. They provide a diverse range of habitats for plants, animals, and microbes. Forests are essential for environmental, land, and economic sustainability. They are the most important resource for humanity's survival. "Forest is a remarkable creature of boundless generosity and benevolence that makes no demand for its nourishment and gives protection to all beings, even supplying shade to the axe-man who destroys it," says Bhagawan Gautam Buddha. Forests, the earth's "Green Lungs," serve as energy and nutrient reservoirs, while also enriching soil by providing much-needed organic matter and increasing its water holding capacity. Forests offer man with food, fodder, medicine, fibre, lumber, and a variety of non-wood items, as well as shade and protection, as one of the most important components of the ecosystem. The forest serves as a natural habitat for biodiversity and a storehouse of genetic diversity. Forest conservation is an excellent method of carbon sequestration. If global warming is compared to a worldwide fever, forests not only serve as a potential cure, but their loss also adds to the spread of the disease (Schone and Netto, 2005). Deforestation and forest degradation account for 24% of all anthropogenic carbon emissions and 18% of all greenhouse gas emissions (IPCC, 2000).
