Biodiversity Park : An Innovative Approach for Conservation and Protection of Natural Heritage

Vikas Kumar and Rashmi Sinha

ABSTRACT:

Biodiversity or biological diversity refers to all life forms with their manifold variety that occurs on the earth. It encompasses not only ecosystems population and species but the different subunits of species, each possessing unique characteristic attributes. Protection and conservation of biodiversity is not only a matter of emotion or aesthetics but it is very important for human as well as the entire ecosystem. We have already lost many species that once flourished in this environment. If not properly conserved, the present biodiversity will be drastically reduced in the face of the rapid development that is taking place. We shall have to preserve whatever little greenery is there and we shall have to create more green spaces to improve the biodiversity. The monitoring of biodiversity is an important aspect to realize the sign of changes. But such a monitoring cannot be done without creating a database of flora and fauna of the areas concerned. Biodiversity Park would serve the objectives of all the above issues in future. The main objective of such kind of park is to conserve the biodiversity of the specific area and to maintain the genetic stock available therein. In biodiversity Park, special thrust is also to be given for the conservation of rare, threatened and endangered species. The present work compiles aims and objectives of establishing a biodiversity park and it’s importance for the whole arena of universe.
