5. The intention to continue with tract logging within Swedish forestry
Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för byggnadsteknik, energisystem och miljövetenskapSammanfattning : The forest contributes to many ecosystem services and Sweden places great hope in the forest for the green transition, which has created a debate in society concerning how the forest should be used. Based on the Theory of Planned Behaviour, attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control were investigated amongst the Swedish foresters to evaluate their intention to continue with tract logging in favour of introducing alternative methods.
