The following are useful measures for conserving forest except

  1. preventing and controlling accidental forest fire
  2. encouraging the use of charcoal for industrial and domestic purposes ✓
  3. combating and preventing plant diseases
  4. reafforestation of depleted forest
Explanation

Forests are conserved by stopping fires, controlling plant diseases and replanting trees. These all protect forests.

Encouraging charcoal use does the opposite. Charcoal is made by cutting and burning trees, so more charcoal demand means more forest loss.
