How to Manage and Sustain Park and Nature
Reserves
Too small to sustain variety of large animal species
Invasive speciesPark in developing countries are
rarely protected-1%
Picture of Velvet Grass in Yosemite Park
Environmental Threats
California’s Sequoia National Park has been negatively effected by polluted air, traveling hundreds of kilometers from cities and destroying these ancient trees
National Park
Book suggests at least 20% of earth’s land be protected to ensure reservation of biodiversityIn order to do so,
funding is needed by the government, private organizations, etc.
People want this reserved land for industrial purposesTrees to make paper
productsLand for agricultureLand to build cities
Solutions/Controversies
Buffer ZonesAn inner core of area
protected by a reserved surrounding it
These are established protected areas between isolated reservesHelp support more
species and allowing migration
Centers for evolution
TermsHabitat Corridors
Insure biodiversityPreserve nature for future
generationsConserving natural
resources/endangered species
