Selective logging—the practice of removing one or two trees and leaving the rest intact—is often considered a sustainable alternative to clear-cutting, in which a large swath of forest is cut down, leaving little behind except wood debris and a denuded landscape.

Answer:

Explanation:

Clear cutting can be define as the removal of entire vegetation cover or large forests from a region. But in selective cutting some unwanted trees, bushes, shrubs are cut so as to increase the area for the growth of trees which are of value. Selective cutting is more sustainable than clear cutting because in clear cutting the chances of loss of diversity of plant species is more. Also some species native to a region may get extinct by clear cutting. Hence, selective cutting is more sustainable.
