All forests were originally natural and in balance with the climate and area of the planet in which they grew.

Then along came man and chopped them down - thus the word "sustainable" actually applies to man's activities rather than being an intrinsic property of the original forest.

A sustainable forest is one that is managed so that when trees are taken out, this is done in a manner that does not destroy the forest ecosystem AND were new trees are planted to replace the timber that has been felled.

Thus a forest that is sustainable is one that lends itself to being "sustained".

"sustain" definition - to keep in existence; to maintain.

How could forests be classified as a renewable and nonrenewable resource?

A forest can either be sustainable or non-sustainable. Non-sustainable forests are those that get harvested but not replenished for manufacturer or bio-mass purposes. Sustainable forests are carefully managed to ensure they are at least completely replenished and go on to reproduce there yield over and over. If harvest stops on a sustainable forest the resource is carbon neutral, except for logistics in harvesting and distribution of the asset.
