Answer:
Cutting down all the trees in an area.

Explanation:
The first choice is incorrect because it describes selective cutting and the second is incorrect because clear cutting causes more damage by removing more and possibly destroying more habitats, increasing CO2, etc. The last choice is incorrect because Clear cutting does not include vegetation other than trees.
