简介:大规模的森林滥伐,尤其是热带地区的森林滥伐,是我们这个时代犯下的罪恶之一。我将对东南亚的森林滥伐情况进行研究,尤其是印尼、马来西亚、菲律宾、越南、泰国和缅甸,因为这些国家近现代的森林开发史料相对丰富可靠。大部分学者现在都同意,是人类导致了气候变迁,但人类的影响何时变成了主导因素?如果我们查阅近期的文献,就会获得这样的印象,即东南亚的大规模森林开发始于20世纪五六十年代,这意味着在此之前人类的影响十分有限。但1950年之前的时期并没有被好好研究。我将主要讨论再生林的资料,这些资料尚未引起重视,无论是1950年之前还是之后的资料。我还会查阅一些西欧国家以及日本和中国的资料,以提供一个比较的视角。
