Question;
Discuss Uganda’s position in conservation management.

A conservation management system (CMS) is a procedure for maintaining a species or habitat in a particular state. It is a means whereby humankind secures wildlife in a favourable condition for contemplation, education or research, in perpetuity. It is an important topic in cultural ecology, where conservation management counterbalances the unchecked exploitative management of natural resources. Conservation management systems are vital for turning sustainable development strategies into successful operations.
It can also mean The protection, preservation, management, or restoration of natural environments and the ecological communities that inhabit them. Conservation is generally held to include the management of human use of natural resources for current public benefit and sustainable social and economic utilization
Conservation management implies the control of environmental and socioeconomic factors in order: * to make more efficient use of materials, * to recycle materials and energy that are vital to human survival, * to restore derelict land * and to maintain the capacity of ecosystems, which are the basis of all economies, to

    Management and Business

    Environmental resource management is the management of the interaction and impact of human societies on the environment. It is not, as the phrase might suggest, the management of the environment itself. Environmental resources management aims to ensure that ecosystem services are protected and maintained for future human generations, and also maintain ecosystem integrity through considering ethical, economic, and scientific (ecological) variables. Environmental resource management tries to identify factors affected by conflicts that rise between meeting needs and protecting resources. It is thus linked to environmental protection and sustainability.…

    How Do we Conserve or Take Care of the Ecosystem: The Value of Ecosystem Services

    Through its ecosystems, planet earth provides mankind with resources such as food, climate regulation, fresh water and clean air. Without these resources, which we call ecosystem services, life on earth is not possible. Currently, we are using per annum 1.5 times the amount of ecosystem services which the planet can provide us with sustainably. As a result of this 'overuse', the capacity of the earth's ecosystems to provide these crucial services is declining. At the same time the demand is increasing because of global population growth and increasing wealth in emerging economies.…

Nevertheless, under a highly competitive environment, retaining competitive advantages and further developing sustainably is an essential but challenging lesson for hot springs hotels. This paper seeks to find out what the most considerable competitiveness a Taiwanese hot springs hotel should own so as to achieve the aim of sustainable development. Moreover, the concepts of the hot springs tourism in Taiwan, destination competitiveness, tourist satisfaction and sustainable development are discussed in the article. The research method used here is a comprehensive analysis with the secondary data sourced from a variety of research papers about destination competitiveness. In this paper, all study factors for sustainable development are derived from three aspects, which are tourism destination resources and attractions, tourist destination environments and tourist destination strategies. The result is expected to find out not only the significance of destination competitiveness for the hot springs tourism sector but also the determinants that are able to benefit the sustainable development. Overall, the safety and security of hot springs bathing is the most considerable issue for both hotels and customers.

    Beekeeping Training Manual

    According to Nick Holland, BBC Business and economics reporter on the economic value of honeybees on Thursday 23rd April 2009 pasted that; Honey Bees keep the world alive "If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe then Man would only have four years of life left. No more Bees, no more Pollination, no more Plants, no more Animals, no more man, this remark is often attributed to Albert Einstein, but few scientists now believe this doomsday scenario will actually happen. Nevertheless, the apocalyptic vision is an indication of how important honeybees are to the world's agricultural economy. It is estimated a third of the food we eat is pollinated by bees. So it is no wonder the dramatic and unexplained decline in the population of these insects is worrying for everyone, not just the conservationists. Fewer bees mean less pollination, which results in less honey and fewer plants. The consequences are damaging industries that depend on the insects' survival and threaten to make the food we eat more expensive. Bees do more than just make honey. They fly around pollinating all sorts of fruit and vegetables, which end up in our plates. Their role in the food chain is so important that in…
