人工林早已被人们所熟悉。在我国,有人工栽植树木,可追溯到1600年前;有成型的人工林时代,也有600年历史了。然而,世人热衷于人工林,主要还在于工业时代的到来,特别是近200年来。现在的人工林问题,已是全球关注的热点问题,这大致有两个原因:一个是环境问题,一个是利益问题。可是,至今为止,人工林非森林问题,并没有得到我们大家的接受,亦或我们的公众并不知道,人工林并不是森林。基于人工林问题的至关重要性,笔者认为,有必要通过讨论,达成共识,以便于对人工林的种种问题,有一个理性的、较早的觉醒。 Plantations have long been familiar to people. In our country, trees are planted artificially dating back 1600 years; there is also a history of 600 years in the era of the shaped plantation. However, the world is keen on plantations, mainly in the industrial age, especially in the past 200 years. The current issue of plantation has become a hot issue of global concern for two reasons: one is environmental problem and the other is interest issue. However, up to now, the problem of non-forest plantations has not been accepted by all of us or our public does not know that plantation forests are not forests. Based on the vital importance of planted forests, the author believes it is necessary to reach a consensus through discussion in order to have a rational and early awakening of the problems of planted forests.
