The practice that does not cause negative ecological impacts is B) thinning.
Explicación
## Step 1The problem is asking us to identify which practice among the given options does not cause negative ecological impacts. The options are: A) roading, B) thinning, C) slash burning, and D) control of non-crop vegetation.## Step 2We need to understand what each of these practices entails and its potential impact on the environment.## Step 3Thinning is a forestry practice that involves selectively removing trees to improve the health of the forest. This practice does not cause negative ecological impacts as it helps in promoting the growth of remaining trees and reducing competition for resources.## Step 4On the other hand, roading, slash burning, and control of non-crop vegetation can lead to negative ecological impacts. Roading can lead to soil erosion and habitat destruction. Slash burning can cause air pollution and negatively impact wildlife. Control of non-crop vegetation can disrupt the natural ecosystem balance.
