Softcover. Condizione: Good. No Jacket. A rich and diverse base of plants supports human welfare in many ways. Yet in exploiting the benefits of plant diversity we all too often degrade it, as when changes in agricultural practices lead to the loss of traditional crop varieties, or when useful wild plants are overharvested. Protecting plant diversity begins with gene banks and protected areas, but Tuxill argues that it also means revitalizing diversity in the landscapes where we grow our food and fiber. It requires creating new partnerships between governments and agencies responsible for managing plant resources and the local communities who rely on them for their livelihood. And it means setting guidelines for sharing the benefits of plant diversity equitably--just as we all share the obligation of maintaining it.--From book jacket.

About the book >.>.> Over the past three decades, scientists, natural resource managers and environ- mental policy-makers have recognized that the conservation of biological diver- sity depends upon protecting and managing intact natural habitats. Such recognition has given greater importance and urgency to the international move- ment to establish and maintain biosphere reserves, national parks, forest reserves, wildlife sanctuaries and other protected areas. Lacking such refuges, biological diversity will continue to vanish from our planet in a steady stream of extinctions, a trickle in some places, a torrent in others. Yet for one prominent component of biological diversity ? the genetic vari- ability contained within culturally valuable plant resources ? conservation efforts have focused primarily on safeguarding these resources away from the habitats and cultural contexts in which they evolved. The off-site protection of plants in botanical gardens, seedbanks and other centralized institutions has met with many successes an.…
