Description:
Throughout history, societies have protected areas they consider biologically valuable. But as a population grows and its consumption increases, so does the drive to extract more economically valuable resources more rapidly – be it minerals, timber or food. There is little consensus – even among biologists – about the most appropriate ways to do this. This paper tries to answer some of the many ongoing questions around mining, biodiversity and access to protected areas.
