The income generated by sustainable tourism can provide important support for nature conservation‚ as well as for economic development. Furthermore‚ sustainable tourism can help to raise awareness among tourists and local communities of the importance of biodiversity to our everyday lives. Through initiatives such as its “Sustainable Tourism – Eliminating Poverty” project‚ and

1.2 How have environmental cycles changed? The capacity of ecosystems to provide benefits to humans‚ that is to provide ecosystem services‚ derives from environmental cycles of water‚ nitrogen‚ carbon‚ and phosphorus. These processes have in some cases been significantly modified by human activity. Changes have been more rapid in the second half of the 20th century than at any other time in recorded human history. Water cycle: Water withdrawals from rivers and lakes for irrigation‚ urban uses‚

The current electricity infrastructure in the Unites States consists of one way “communication” between the electric company and the homes receiving the electricity with the communication coming from the electric company to the homes. The current electricity infrastructure in the United States is more than 100 years old and because of this fact‚ it is outdated resulting in a great lack of efficiency. There is no way for the electricity company to obtain information from the individual homes pertaining

Identifying Energy Saving opportunity in Building and Role of Social Awareness in Reducing Energy Demand It is sometimes difficult for us to appreciate the importance of energy conservation. With this project entitled “Identifying energy saving opportunity in building and role of social awareness in reducing energy demand” we realize that simply by being more diligent in our use of energy in homes and offices‚ would have a significant impact on national energy requirements.

The Association of Zoos and Aquariums is an international group that gives accreditation to facilities that strive to improve the welfare of their animals‚ educate the public about the wild and captive animals and environment and spend money on research to help both education‚ conservation and wildlife. Zoos that are not accredited by the AZA may do these things‚ but it is unlikely. "Roadside

biota‚ natural factors such as overspecialization ‚ competition‚ sudden climatic change‚ or catastrophic events like volcanic eruptions and earthquakes have driven species to endangerment and extinction. Some people may ask "why bother with conservation?" We now realise that it is important to maintain the planet’s biodiversity‚ that it is the richness (variety) of animal and plant life‚ its abundance and wild habitats. The more species disappear‚ the more entire eco-systems become vulnerable
