Both realism and justice demand that efforts to conserve biological diversity address human needs as well. The most promising hope of accomplishing such a goal lies in locally based conservation efforts -- an approach that seeks ways to make local communities the beneficiaries and custodians of conservation efforts. Natural Connections focuses on rural societies and the conservation of biodiversity in rural areas. It represents the first systematic analysis of locally based efforts, and includes a comprehensive examination of cases from around the world where the community-based approach is used. The book provides: an overview of community-based conservation in the context of the debate over sustainable development, poverty, and environmental decline case studies from the developed and developing worlds -- Indonesia, Peru, Australia, Zimbabwe, Costa Rica, the United Kingdom -- that present detailed examples of the locally based approach to conservation a review of the principal issues arising from community-based programs an agenda for future action

Patrick Yarnell, an environmental planning and management consultant from Vancouver, had the right combination of knowledge and expertise for the project, and was contracted in the fall of 2001 to research and write a preliminary report to submit to the Board. [...] To successfully engage the public, a government must understand the motivations of volunteers; to provide quality data, volunteers must understand the requirements of a structured monitoring program; and, to facilitate the sharing of knowledge, an extension organization must understand the relationships and gaps between the needs of decision makers, NGOs, and volunteers. [...] In their study of the participation of public stewardship and advocacy groups in the protection of fish habitat, Rosenau and Angelo (2001) profiled three groups: the Alouette River Management Society (ARMS), the Pitt River and Area Watershed Network (PRAWN), and the Burnaby Lake System Project (BLSP). [...] The Ecosystem Monitoring and Assessment Network and the Canadian Nature Federation have similar partnerships and programs for WormWatch (with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada) and IceWatch (with the Meteorological Service of Canada and Laval University). [...] The CDC maintains a Biological and Conservation Data System of occurrence records, and produces reports of the occurrence and rarity (global and provincial) of species.

Many people believe that environmental regulation has passed a point of diminishing returns: the quick fixes have been achieved and the main sources of pollution are shifting from large "point sources" to more diffuse sources that are more difficult and expensive to regulate. The political climate has also changed in the United States since the 1970s in ways that provide impetus to seek alternatives to regulation. This book examines the potential of some of these "new tools" that emphasize education, information, and voluntary measures. Contributors summarize what we know about the effectiveness of these tools, both individually and in combination with regulatory and economic policy instruments. They also extract practical lessons from this knowledge and consider what is needed to make these tools more effective. The book will be of interest to environmental policy practitioners and to researchers and students concerned with applying social and behavioral sciences knowledge to improve environmental quality.

Despite widespread popular support for environmental action, Phillip F. Cramer argues that current U.S. environmental policy approaches fail to address the real threat of environmental insecurity. Cramer traces this failure to a reluctance to recognize and address the interconnectedness of natural forces--just as all elements within the environment are linked, so too should our perspectives on, and responses to, environmental degradation be linked. In this book Cramer provides an innovative holistic approach to environmental protection that incorporates the best lessons learned from the fields of biology, ethics, philosophy, political science, law, ecology, and international relations. He especially advocates local action and, providing illustrative examples, demonstrates how local action around the world is most effective when carried out within a global framework that supports information dissemination and international coordination. This book will energize to thought and action any scholar, student, or general reader concerned with environmental issues and our current trajectory toward environmental decay.
