Biodiversity Conservation

Ecological degradation and its corollary biodiversity loss pose a serious threat to development. Ecologically destructive economic activities are inefficient not merely because of the resulting resource misallocation but also because of the excessive scale of activity levels; excessive in relation to the limited availability of natural capital when the latter is complementary to human-made capital. In order to bring about sustainable resource conservation and management, it is essential to adopt several different approaches for managing our forests and biodiversity. This book provides detailed information on the issues related to biodiversity conservation. It highlights the importance of the implementation of conservation strategies, and community-oriented approaches for biodiversity conservation. This book would be useful for students, scholars and teachers of environmental science and all who interested in biodiversity conservation and sustainable development.
