THE WORLD CONSERVATION STRATEGY
by Antonio C. Antonio
January 1, 2015
Preservation is synonymous to protection, safeguarding and
safekeeping. Preservation, as an
environmental term, focuses on the preservation, protection or restoration of
the natural environment, natural ecosystems, vegetation and wildlife. Towards this end (preservation of nature and
natural resources), a wide range of political, legal, social and scientific
strategies have been adopted by societies and governments throughout the world. Such efforts towards preservation gave rise
to the following conservation objectives:
1.
Planned use of natural and environmental
resources of the planet;
2.
Preservation of maximum number of different
plant and animal species in order to retain the genetic resource base of the
biosphere; and,
3.
Provision of recreational facilities in
landscapes largely unaltered by recent advances in technology.
These conservation objectives form the core principles in
the world conservation strategy.
Just my little
thoughts…
