What are the advantages and disadvantages of clear-cutting versus selective cutting?

Advantage of clear cutting:

It’s good for regeneration of shade intolerant species. Its economical way to regenerate needing fire as part of its management like in opening cones and controlling diseases.

Disadvantages of clear cutting:

Clear -cutting may create short term erosion problems especially in fine textured soils such as clays which may result to landslides and snow slides which would be a risk.

Advantages in selective cutting/logging:

Allows ecosystem to support more wildlife. It always forest to retain some of their resistance to disease and pests.

Disadvantages in selective cutting/logging:

In selective cutting the loggers must move the heavy equipment and logs around the remaining trees in the forest. Making it more dangerous work. It is also more expensive and a slower process.
There are some species of tree, like pines, firs and red woods that do not regenerate well after selective logging. This means that the composition of a forest overall may change after selective logging. Wind and ice storms can damage the open areas left by selective logging. Fire is also a risk after selective logging because the soil dries out and fires are more likely to occur.

Africans learned what the europeans wanted them to learn. instead of learning about african history and current information that could and would them they learned solely what europe wanted them to. and not everyone received the same education, some received better and others none.
