BIODIVERSITY-SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (05-10-12)

The Department of Botany organized a guest lecture on BIODIVERSITY-SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT on 5th October 2012 at Seminar hall. 

STAFF AND STUDENTS

Dr. M. Raghu Ram, Asst Professor at ANU. He emphasized on “Usage” and “Utilization” of natural resources and human responsibility for conservation of Nature. Dr. Raghuram emphasized on the -Biological diversity - or biodiversity - is a term we use to describe the variety of life on Earth. It refers to the wide variety of ecosystems and living organisms: animals, plants, their habitats and their genes.

Loss of biodiversity - the variety of animals, plants, their habitats and their genes - on which so much of human life depends, is one of the world’s most pressing crises. It is estimated that the current species extinction rate is between 1,000 and 10,000 times higher than it would naturally be. The main drivers of this loss are converting natural areas to farming and urban development, introducing invasive alien species, polluting or over-exploiting resources including water and soils and harvesting wild plants and animals at unsustainable levels. 

Role of IUCN- IUCN has access to many different kinds of information on species. The Red List of Threatened Species™ provides global assessments of the conservation status of species. The IUCN Species Survival Commission, together with the Species Programme and their partners have developed a number of approaches to build up a comprehensive picture of the status and trends in species and biodiversity at global, regional and national levels.
