Although all coastal development projects in Lebanon typically require an environmental impact assessment (EIA), biodiversity has rarely been given specific or appropriate consideration in the EIA process. The objective of this report is to present guidelines that specifically address biodiversity inclusion in EIA studies.
Conflict and conservation focuses on armed conflict and nature. The theme is highly timely as armed conflicts cause great economic and social harm, as well as environmental damage around the world. Conflicts have stretched societies to their limits in terms of financial and human resources. Lives and property have been lost and disrupted, livelihoods destroyed, and people displaced.
O relatório traz informações e dados selecionados sobre a qualidade física, química e biológica da água e uma visão geral da biodiversidade terrestre, de água doce e marinha na bacia do Rio Doce desde o rompimento da barragem até o momento atual.
The report contextualises the current status of water quality and biodiversity in the Rio Doce watershed, providing selected data and information on the physical, chemical and biological quality of the water and an overview of the terrestrial, freshwater and marine biodiversity since the dam rupture.
These guidelines offer an approach for developing a corporate-level biodiversity strategic plan, including measurable goals and objectives and a set of core linked indicators, that will allow companies to measure their biodiversity performance across their operations. The Guidelines can be used by any company in any sector that has impacts and dependencies on biodiversity, whether large or small, national or multinational.
Achieving a climate-resilient future requires rapid, sustained and far-reaching transformations in energy, land-use, infrastructure and industrial systems. Large-scale expansion of renewable energy can play a critical role in meeting the world’s growing energy demands and in the fight against climate change. However, even ‘clean’ energy sources can have significant unintended impacts on the environment.
Rezervácia Abrod bola vyhlásená v roku 1964 a svojou hodnotou z hľadiska biodiverzity patrí k najvýznamnejším rezerváciám Borskej nížiny, ako aj celého Slovenska. Na jej území sa organizácia DAPHNE v spolupráci so správou Chránenej krajinnej oblasti Záhorie od roku 1994 venuje aktivitám na pochopenie ekologických zákonitostí a zachovanie rezervácie.
