Abstract:
The study essentially aims to assess the public-private partnership (PPP) as a thriving strategy in natural resources maintenance that largely is dependent on stakeholders’ participation forest bio-diversity and green management. In an age of climate change and global warming, as a threat due to unavoidable consequences of human activities, natural resource management is now one of the prime concern around the developed and developing countries in terms of creating responsible attitude towards green maintenance. Governments have, by and large, agreed on sustainable employ and conservation of forests in several international forums during the last three decades. In fact, public sector has already proved its inefficiency and ineffective mode to protect natural resources due to lack of skills, human and material resources, and rampant corruption which have encouraged the government to introduce the strategy of PPP. The study was conducted at Lawachhara national park through a sample survey by employing stratified sampling as well as some other tools of data collection incorporating both quantitative and qualitative approaches. It is evident in the study that most of the respondents commonly believe PPP may change the existing ineffective and inefficient mode of natural resources management. Another important finding included that challenges are not possible to overcome unless the active participation of the stakeholders are possible to ensure.

Abstract:
Despite the large number of scientific papers dealing with conservation of forest genetic resources, research about the attitudes and evaluation of representatives of key stakeholders in the forestry and nature protection sectors, towards this issue, have not been sufficiently represented so far in Serbia. The aim of this paper was to study the attitudes of representatives of key public institutions (administrative and professional), enterprises, educational and research organizations in the forestry and nature protection sectors, towards the factors that threaten biodiversity, conservation methods, state of seed sources in Serbia and proposals of measures to improve forest genetic resources. The methodology used in the paper is an approach to the research on conservation of forest genetic resources which is used in the social sciences. The survey included a total number of 32 respondents in the territory of the Republic of Serbia. According to the key stakeholders? opinion, urbanization and infrastructure construction (average score 4.1) have the greatest negative impact on biodiversity; conservation of forest genetic resources in natural populations through designation of seed stands is rated as the most important in situ method (average score 4.60), while establishment of seed orchards and provenance trials are rated as the most important ex situ conservation methods (average score 4.19). From the analysis of respondents' attitudes, it can be concluded that the conservation of forest genetic resources through designation of seed stands (72%) and conservation in protected areas (63%) are methods that gave the best results in Serbia. However, the majority of respondents (about 60%) stated that seed sources in Serbia do not have an appropriate structure and spatial coverage. In addition to the professional activities and support from the institutions, the majority of respondents believe that it is necessary to intensify activities to promote conservation of forest genetic resources.

Abstract:
SynopsisThe successful utilisation of recent advances in plant biotechnology for the benefit of mankind, with the avoidance of fundamental mistakes that could lead to environmental disaster, requires wise and balanced legislation. In addition, the conservation of the habitats and germplasm so essential to plant breeding requires carefully planned management of resources. These, however, depend upon an informed public with a sensitivity to, and knowledge and understanding of, the issues at stake. It is the people, after all, who influence decision making by governments, through the ballot box or through the pressure of public opinion. Botanic Gardens have a vital role to play in public education, and have the capacity to become the shop windows for the whole of plant science.Four examples of public education in plant biology being developed at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh are considered, as follows:(i) Public information, as exemplified by the provision of information about plants, lectures about plants and the development of ecological plantings and displays relating to agriculture, plant breeding and conservation.(ii) Contact through art, as exemplified by the Andy Goldsworthy retrospective exhibition of 1990 and the 1991 exhibitions of the work of Redouté and Margaret Stones, in which the media of sculpture and painting inspired by the natural world have been used to build bridges between plant science and the wider public.(iii) Education in primary schools, as exemplified by the ‘Living in a Rainforest’ project, in which young people and their teachers spend periods of time in a replica of a Bornean longhouse and through this experience develop an understanding of the importance of the balance between people and the complex ecosystem of the rainforest.(iv) Education in secondary schools, as exemplified by the Science and Plants for Schools project in which rapid cycling Brassica rapa and other materials are used in the development of new and exciting approaches to the teaching of experimental plant science, genetics and breeding.The ways in which projects such as these can be designed to convey important messages concerning plant breeding, genetic engineering, germplasm and habitat conservation and the role of plants in the world economy are discussed, and ideas for other approaches to public education in the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh are outlined.

Abstract:
Nature-based tourism is increasing throughout the world. Most are based in national parks and restricted areas. UNESCO has declared 28% of the world‟s largest contiguous mangrove forest, the Sundarban, as a world heritage site in 1987. Sundarban is the largest mangrove forest in the world, which is facing various kinds of threats. More than millions of people depends on cutting the tree, hunting animal other sources that are related with Sundarban. Negative natural and anthropogenic impacts and over-exploitation of natural resources have caused severe harm to the ecosystem. A growing human population with few different support opportunities poses a significant threat to the mangrove forest. There is an illegal increase in the reduction of trees and woods in the Sundarban. Deforestation is taking an increase in most of the areas of Sundarban which will ultimately lead to the loss of diversity. The problem of overfishing has placed the surroundings below great pressure. The stock of the fish is decreasing due to the combination of overexploitation and environmental condition changes. The density of the fish in shallow waters reduced enormously. Because of the excessive demand for the prawn product, the native people dropped the normal fishing practices and adopted the prawn seed culture. Earlier traditional agricultural strategies were practiced. But today, people are adopting the techniques of using pesticides and chemicals that are affecting the flora and fauna of the region. The dumping of various industrial and domestic wastes into the river systems also possesses a threat to the environment. This forest ecosystem conjointly has become at risk of pollution, which can have modified the ecosystem. This paper suggests that nature-oriented tourism destination Sundarban can achieve sustainability through public awareness. Well-planned sustainable tourism and residence awareness could provide economic and long-term incentives for conservation and could bring additional benefits to local communities and regional economies. The paper focuses on how to increase residence awareness.

Abstract:
Within Canada, and internationally, an increasing demand that forests be managed to maintain all resources has led to the development of criteria and indicators of sustainable forest management. There is, however, a lack of understanding, at an operational scale, how to evaluate and compare forest management activities to ensure the sustainability of all resources. For example, nationally, many of the existing indicators are too broad to be used directly at a local scale of forest management; provincially, regulations are often too prescriptive and rigid to allow for adaptive management; and forest certification programs, often based largely on public or stakeholder opinion instead of scientific understanding, may be too local in nature to permit a comparison of operations across a biome. At an operational scale indicators must be relevant to forest activities and ecologically integrated. In order to aid decision-makers in the adaptive management necessary for sustainable forest management, two types of indicators are identified: those that are prescriptive to aid in planning forest management and those that are evaluative to be used in monitoring and suggesting improvements. An integrated approach to developing standards based on an ecosystem management paradigm is outlined for the boreal forest where the variability inherent in natural systems is used to define the limits within which forest management is ecologically sustainable. Sustainability thresholds are thus defined by ecosystem response after natural disturbances. For this exercise, standards are proposed for biodiversity, forest productivity via regeneration, soil conservation and aquatic resources. For each of these standards, planning indicators are developed for managing forest conditions while forest values are evaluated by environmental indicators, thus leading to a continuous cycle of improvement. Approaches to developing critical thresholds and corresponding prescriptions are also outlined. In all cases, the scale of evaluation is clearly related to the landscape (or FMU) level while the stand level is used for measurement purposes. In this view the forest should be managed as a whole even though forest interventions are usually undertaken at the stand level. Key words: sustainable forest management, criteria and indicators, biodiversity, regeneration, soil conservation, aquatic resources, landscape level evaluation, planning and monitoring

Abstract:
In rural areas, indigenous knowledge plays an important role in the protection of forests and wildlife, but the rapid developments occurring in the society and economy impose several challenges to the continued role of indigenous knowledge. This study records how a Bulang village in the Yunnan Province of China uses indigenous knowledge to protect forests and wildlife and analyzes the underlying reasons. In this study, we found that even without specific punishment measures, local people effectively controlled the use of natural resources through moral constraints, public-opinion constraints, and worship rituals. Furthermore, they formed a forest- and wildlife-protection system with banyan trees and the Derbyan Parakeet at the core. This protection system is based on primitive nature worship and indigenous knowledge passed down orally from generation to generation. Such knowledge inheritance reflects the relationship between local people and nature. However, the lack of scientific guidance regarding ecological protection may lead to the destruction of the ecosystem. One such instance is illustrated using birdwatching tourism, for which the Bulang people are attracting birds by artificial feeding. This practice, while prescribed by indigenous knowledge, deviates from scientific knowledge on ecological protection. Therefore, we propose that there should be an intermeshing of indigenous and scientific knowledge to ensure the inheritance of and innovation in the former and effective biodiversity protection.

Abstract:
Abstract There is ongoing public debate about the best course of action to take when wildlife are affected by oil spills. Critics of wildlife rehabilitation suggest that the cleaning and release of oiled animals is a waste of resources focused on individual animals (not populations); thus, the most responsible course of action is to immediately euthanize affected animals. These critics claim that survival of rehabilitated animals is poor, and that the funds spent on rehabilitation would benefit wildlife more if spent on other conservation efforts. In this opinion piece, with a focus on birds, we review reasons for engaging in a coordinated response to oiled wildlife that includes cleaning and rehabilitation. The reasons for responding to oiled wildlife in any capacity include ethical, human safety, and legal aspects. Our rationale for proposing that responders attempt to rehabilitate wildlife, rather than planning on immediate euthanasia, includes financial, scientific, and additional ethical reasons. Financially, costs for wildlife rehabilitation are typically a very small portion of overall oil-spill response costs, and are typically independent of postspill enforcement and funds used to restore injured natural resources. Scientifically, we review recent studies that have shown that animals cleaned and rehabilitated after oil spills can often survive as well as nonoiled control animals. Ethically, some people would consider individual animals to have intrinsic value and that we, as consumers of petroleum products, have an obligation to reduce suffering and mitigate injuries associated with such accidents. For these reasons, we suggest that, although humane euthanasia should always be considered as an option for animals unlikely to return to normal function after rehabilitation, response to oil spills should include a coordinated effort to attempt wildlife rehabilitation.

Abstract:
The study was conducted to observe effluent management technique, physico-chemical characteristic (BOD, TDS, DO, pH, EC, temperature, color, odor, transparency and heavy metals) at different steps of effluent treatment process and compare those with standards of Bangladesh Environmental Conservation Rules (ECR)-1997. Nine effluent samples were collected from Impress Newtex Composite Textile Ltd Industries at Gorai under Mirzapur Upazila during the month of January to June 2013. The color and odor of the inlet effluent samples were highly colored and emit foul smell, respectively but in case of outlet effluent samples very low. The DO, BOD, TDS, EC, pH, temperature, transparency value of all collected samples from ETP outlet were 5 mg/l, 42 mg/l, 2245 mg/l, 192 ?s/cm, 6.5, 31.2 cm, respectively which fulfils ECR (1997) standards for inland surface water, public sewerage water and land for irrigation excepts the value of TDS. In case of heavy metal (Pb, Zn &Ni) assessment the concentrations of all collected samples were within the permissible limit according to ECR, 1997 accepts Pb for inland surface water and land for irrigation. Different types of dyes and chemicals were used during fabrics dyeing. As a result, the values of different physico-chemical parameters were more in inlet effluent but due to treatment its shows less value at the outlet effluent which fulfils ECR (1997) standards requirement. Only best management practices can ensure the best effluent quality discharged into the environment as well as best performance of ETP.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jesnr.v7i2.22204 J. Environ.

Abstract:
This paper is the subject of the Bachelor's Degree by Albina Dervishi under the guidance of the lecturer Dr. Otjela Lubonja. Through this study, it is intended to show what is recycling, what is its impact on nature and society. As an efficient process for the handling and reuse of materials, which promotes innovation and an important and long-term economic growth. Equally important are both social and environmental benefits because it promotes the sustainable use of our natural resources and fosters community development, saving of new land use, pollution prevention, energy conservation and reduction of greenhouse gas effects. To tell us at what stage of our recycling is our country and whether we have it or not as a culture. To explain what it means to use indoor and outdoor recyclable materials and what these materials are. The paper continues to detail how recyclable materials are selected in detail from their chemical and structural composition as these materials can be applied to the interior and exterior. In practice, it is unlikely to achieve this ideal in the near future most of the construction companies in Albania. However, a significant contribution that the society itself, but also the construction industry can do, is to link design and ecology to building buildings and buildings without harming the environment. So use the design in such a way as to make possible the reuse and recycling of the materials used. The work at the current stage was supported by secondary data, the study at a second stage could be extended to public policy presented as a project for its realization, in public institutions such as municipal units, city hall. Through this paper, UET draws the attention of the country's scientific opinion and beyond to the opportunities created for in-depth studies in the field of Architecture and Design Sciences.

Abstract:
To develop a database on growth promoters and feed additives in cattle fattening a purposive survey was carried out. It is done among 30 cattle fattening farmers covering 1 Upazilla under 3 union in Mymensingh district of Bangladesh, who were involved in cattle fattening activities before Eid-Ul-Azha (August to November2015). The survey was done covering farmer’s information, livestock population and production system, feed sources, manpower involvement, availability, types of hormones, feed additives use with negative opinion and probable suggestions for controlling whereas the researcher had no control or could not manipulate the variables as the appeared. All the farmers interviewed during the survey period were literates, and about 52% of them had primary education, 27% had secondary school certificates, 14% obtained higher secondary certificate and the rest were graduates and post-graduates, 7%. Irrespective of literacy about 10% of the interviewed farmer had training on cattle fattening and the rest fattened cattle without having any sort of training. About 35% respondents use skilled personal for cattle fattening. In the study areas, most of the farmers (55%) were using roughage and 45% of them use concentrate. The fattened cattle were marketed by farmers is 98% and rest 2% by butcher or others. About 72% of the farmer use Tracoll and 28% use Ketofox as feed additives and as hormone 30% farmers use Betamethasone, 55% use Decasone and 15% use Periactin. In public perception 89% farmers use growth promoters in wrong period and 80% use harmful feed additives, feeding natural feed in low amount is (65%). Consumers are less concern to buy fattened bull (93%). The mean of the suggestions like veterinary services (1.26), doses in proper ages (2.06), feeding balanced feed (1.62), organic growth promoters program (0.60) and knowledge through ICT program (0.03). From the above results it may be concluded that, major number of cattle are fattened by small farmers in the survey area. For this fattening purpose different types of hormones and feed additives available in the market are used by them. It can be concluded that, the percentages of different negative opinions on using hormones and feed additives is higher.J. Environ. Sci. & Natural Resources, 9(2): 109-113 2016

Thesis (MScAgric (Conservation Ecology and Entomology)--University of Stellenbosch, 2007.
This study assessed (a) the inclusion of local communities in the process of the establishment and management of Parque Nacional do Limpopo (PNL); (b) local community resources use practices, livelihoods strategies, land resources use and ownership and institutional arrangements at the grassroots; and (c) attitudes and perceptions of local communities towards the park and its implications for the sustainability of the park. The study shows that local stakeholders were left out in the planning and implementation processes of the park, which was through top-down approach. There was a lack of involvement of local communities and co-ordination with local stakeholders concerning on-the-ground activities. Local community participation occurs through consultation, thereby depriving primary stakeholders of any decision-making power. However, the study notes that the ongoing interaction between the park management, community advocacy organisations and local communities in the park represents a positive step towards the evolving practice of participatory governance of the protected area. It is also shown that local communities have diverse livelihood strategies, including subsistence agriculture, livestock herding, forest products harvesting, small businesses, handicrafts and cash remittances by migrate labourers. It is worth noting that land and forest resources use constitutes the foundation of their livelihood strategies. Local communities considered land to belong to traditional land chiefs who head local socio-cultural and political organizations in rural areas. They allocate land and control access to natural resources. Other community members asserted that the land belongs to the respective families that inherited and use it. The legal framework in Mozambique authorises the establishment of new institutions at the grassroots. This overlaps with the pre-existing traditional institutions in the rural areas, resulting in power conflicts and in some cases disruption of local institutions for governance ...

Abstract:

A range of views exist on the question of the effects of the Judeoâ Christian tradition on environmental ethics. Some believe that the Judeo-Christian tradition has played the significant role in bringing about the present environmental situation. Others maintain that the current environmental crisis is much more complicated, resulting from many divergent factors. Still others would say that the Judeo-Christian tradition, as expressed in the Bible, calls man into a sacred relationship with nature which can be defined as the environmental ethic of stewardship.

This thesis studies the relationship between Christian religious commitment and attitudes toward the environment.

A questionnaire completed by 242 individuals who attend church in the Roanoke Valley provides the case study data. The survey instrument measures Christian religious commitment and attitudes toward the environment. The results of this study will provide further understanding of indicators for environmenta1 ethics.

<em>Abstract</em> .—Inland fisheries provide important contributions to human well-being, but these contributions are often overlooked or undervalued by decision makers. Consequently, inland fisheries are not adequately considered in either global fisheries sustainability initiatives—which are generally marine-focused—or in the use of freshwater resource planning in an era of water crisis. Here we synthesize the state of knowledge of the contribution of inland freshwater fisheries to human well-being. To date, there has been no coordinated global valuation of the ecosystem service contributions of inland fisheries, and it is thus only possible to highlight the range of services they provide from isolated case studies. Throughout these studies, human nutrition emerges as a key value, with freshwater fish providing essential nutrients in countries such as Cambodia and Bangladesh, which are endowed with productive freshwater fisheries. Inland fisheries also provide livelihoods, income, economic autonomy, dietary diversity, cultural identity, and social structure to tens of millions of people around the world. The diversity of fishing methods, conservation strategies, and traditional ways of managing fisheries enriches the human experience and represents a source of cultural and technical knowledge and human institutional ingenuity. In this paper, we review what is known about approaches for assigning values to freshwater fisheries and identify methods to better assess and communicate those values to decision makers and the public in order to increase representation of inland fisheries in natural resource decision-making processes. Most importantly, we focus on the contributions of inland fisheries to food security, nutrition, community cohesion, and improved livelihoods. This paper also explores approaches that consider the knowledge and perspective of fishers, fish workers, other aquatic resource users, and their communities to augment and improve the knowledge and perspective of scientists and resource managers in better managing freshwater fisheries resources. We also stress the importance of ensuring that assessments explicitly consider gender relations and roles in inland fisheries and fishing-dependent societies. Better recognition and valuation of the economic, nutrition, and social benefits that inland fisheries provide to human communities is an essential step toward better incorporating inland fisheries into future water and food security policies.
