The Economics of Conservation

Conservation

Some countries contribute to the costs that private owners incur when managing their forests to produce non market output (such as nature conservation and recreation) and or offer incentives to promote afforestation.

Recent developments in close to nature forest management provide a model for a decentralized system that can yield good biodiversity conservation, consistent with the ecosystem approach adopted by the Convention on Biodiversity.

Storage and conservation of harvests.

Other options included restructuring and construction of water infrastructure and reduction of leakage and construction of solar desalination systems despite high initial cost, and the implementation of nature and forest conservation measures to stabilize watersheds, and thus water resources.

Conservation and management of marine biodiversity

In addition to a national environmental commission, a high level committee for nature conservation had recently been established with the goal of integrating modalities for assessing the environmental impact of economic activities in the planning and formulation of economic development projects.

A deep understanding of plant science is essential in planning and executing conservation projects. Kew s recent work with the International Union for Conservation of Nature, London s Natural History Museum, and the Zoological Society of London to create the Sample Red List Index (SRLI) for plants has revealed for the first time that one in five of the world s plant species is threatened with extinction.

The ecosystem approach is applied by most organizations, including the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the GEF.
