Or at least reples meh wet sumtin bettur Ever since we caught wind of the fact that there are wide varieties of species existing in this Earth, mankind has kept on searching far Quick and wide across the globe to attempt to find and identify each and every one of them. Sadly, the rate of extinction of known species Summary seem to be catching to the rate of discovery of the new ones. If handled poorly, the rate of extinction might soon surpass that of discovery. With an estimate of around 2–8 million species in our planet, only around 1.8 of them are named [1, 2], a great sum, yet continuously diminishing through the irresponsibility of man. Background Hunting, and destruction of habitats through deforestation, and urbanization, are few of the various actions that sometimes lead to the extinction of the various species roaming our planet. Conservation of biological diversity leads to conservation of essential ecological diversity to preserve the continuity of food chains. The genetic diversity of plants and animals is preserved. It ensures the sustainable utilization of life support systems on Objective of earth. the It provides a vast knowledge of potential use to the scientific community. Conservation A reservoir of wild animals and plants is preserved, thus enabling of Biodiversity them to be introduced, if need be, in the surrounding areas. Biological diversity provides immediate benefits to the society such as recreation and tourism. Biodiversity conservation serves as an insurance policy for the future. IN SITU “On-Site conservation”, is an approach, where the natural habitats of living organisms are preserved, and maintained, allowing the organisms to flourish in their natural habitats, some few examples are national parks, wildlife sanctuaries, and biosphere reserves Types of EX SITU Conservation “Off-Site conservation” is an approach where the organisms are relocated to controlled– artificial, or man-made habitats, which are Approaches made to imitate their original habitats. In return to having lesser mobility and interactions with other species, the scientists are able to carefully observe and provide the needs of the organism being taken care of, examples are zoos, aquariums and botanical gardens The International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has organized a global assortment of scientists and research stations across the planet to monitor the changing state of nature in an effort to tackle the extinction crisis. The IUCN Red List serves as an international conservation tool to identify those Conservation species most in need of conservation attention and by providing a global index on the status of biodiversity. priorities The rapid rate of biodiversity loss, threatens to limit our possible sources of supply in the near future, as such, conservation priorities have been made, this way, we can focus on preserving the most threatened species, until it they can be left alone, or at least be taken care of, without having to take extensive measures. Project Elephant Launched in 1991, to help protect Asian elephants from large scale poaching. Few Projects Project Rhino that aim to Launched in 2011, “Project Rhino is an association of like-minded organizations, facilitating rhino conservation interventions aimed at save eliminating rhino poaching and securing the white and black rhino populations of KwaZulu-Natal” [5]. Endangered Panda Conservation Project Species Launched in 2003, this projects aims to create new panda reserves in china, to protect the population of Giant Pandas. The BAD Large industrial development projects such as mines and dams, have an unavoidable impact on the local environment, which in turn can have huge repercussions for biodiversity. While Biodiversity The GOOD Offsetting might be able to compensate for these impacts, they usually end up causing rifts in the ecosystem. and the BAD The GOOD Conservation Projects attempts to amend few of these problems by rehabilitating or protecting species and their habitats to prevent disruption of ecosystems, albeit in exchange of the possible industrial gains. Each and every year, population of various species fluctuate, this isn’t much of a problem for common species, but for rare, or uncommon species, such fluctuations mean a lot, not only for that Whats next specie, but also for us humans, as such, each and every year, new conservation projects pop up, attempting to control those then? fluctuations into a positive direction. Along with the conservation projects, are charities, companies, and organizations, funding these projects for the betterment of mankind and the planet. That’s it~ ? Yeah, that’s it :3
