Biodiversity is the sum of organisms that include plants, animals, microorganisms and the ecosystems. These natural resources are gifts of nature that are important for humans and for the functioning of ecosystems. The local/indigenous peoples have been custodians of diversity so far. Through an understanding of the natural processes they have been able to use and share the natural resources wisely. Gift giving and receiving, however, is thwarted by the exchange value system. This book is a unique compilation of research articles, penned by scientists, administrators and ecoplanners in opening a new vista in the field of biodiversity and environment. The main motto of this book is to gain a universally better quality of life and to achieve a rich biodiversity on this watery planet.
