Forest Biodiversity and its Conservation Practices

Description

Common practice with regard to additionality is well proven; there is no indication of comparable conservation acquisitions in the region surrounding the project that provide material revenues from conservation without carbon finance, indeed this is unique in comparison to other conservation activities. Biodiversity provide the direct and indirect benefits to humans including food or material goods, environmental regulate, reduced carbon emissions and reduces climate change . The main objective of biodiversity conservation is to use the resource sustainably. Intact forests can provide cost-effective “insurance” against the impacts of climate change. For example, nature can defend coastal communities against the effects of storms and natural disasters if coastal ecosystems are intact. Compared to hard infrastructure such as seawalls and levees, restoring mangrove forests is much more affordable for protecting large coastal areas and requires less maintenance. Additional benefits include providing communities with food, raw materials and livelihoods as well as other benefits from biodiversity. The book will generate interest in conservation and utilization of forest genetic resources of India and Developing Countries among scientists, foresters, researchers, environmentalists and conservationists.
