Biodiversity & Ecosystem services

Environment and ecosystem management are key to ensuring urban and rural development and progress towards the achievement of the MDGs. Poor communities directly depend on natural resources for their livelihood and are the most vulnerable to a degraded environment, natural disasters and are the first to suffer from polluted air, water and soil. Sound natural resource use is at the core of effective strategies to strengthen resilience to climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Sub-Topics:

Air pollution and preservation - Bio trade - Bio-diversity monitoring - Bio-diversity policies - Biodiversity conservation accompanying measures - Conservation - Ecosystem services - Ecotourism - Hunting and poaching - Marine pollution control - Natural resource management - Sustainable Land management - Water resources conservation - Wildlife crisis - Wildlife trade & trafficking
