| Publisher Description: Biosphere is a constantly researched sphere of study. This book presents researches about the evaluation of origins, development, ecosystems and resource utilization patterns of the biosphere. Many express the problems and challenges that humanity undergoes in the process to experiment and begin a new partnership with the ecosystem in places designated as biosphere reserves by UNESCO, under its Man and the Biosphere (MAB) programme. With the beginning of the 21st century, humanity is much more alert and conscious of the unfavorable consequences that it has brought upon global climate change and biodiversity loss. Humanity is at a serious moment of comprehension and action to work out a brand new interaction with the biosphere that sustains our own welfare and that of our ecosystem companions. This book is a humble effort to enhance and enable that moment and its march ahead in human history. |
