Conservation Against Preservation

Captions available

The idea

Conservation is using natural resources in a sustainable way so they are preserved for future generations; preservation is setting areas aside so resources stay essentially untouched with as little human impact as feasible. The chapter's outcomes connect preservation efforts worldwide to anthropogenic pressures on the environment.

In practice

A managed forest against a wilderness.

Where people slip

Renewable energy initiatives are the chapter's third outcome.
