"Forest" without foresters
(and without humans, period)
is *not* "useless".

A forest sequesters carbon, produces oxygen, causes rainfall to be percolated to aquifers, provides habitat for insects, plants and animals. A forest without foresters provides no forestry products for humans. This is a waste of a valuable renewable resource. A forest held off-limits to humans provides no educational, recreational or spiritual opportunity. This is a waste.
