    http://reports.eea.eu.int/92-9157-202-0/en/page311.html
    
    Extractions: The overall threat and changes in biodiversity at all scales (genes, species, ecosystems and habitats) are expected to remain high in the EU to 2010 and beyond. The pressure comes from many interconnected sources, principally land use change, pollution and the introduction of alien species. The area available for natural and semi-natural habitats and indigenous species is foreseen to decrease (e.g. the ongoing relentless spread of urban development and transport infrastructure) and the threats are foreseen to continue to increase. But ongoing and some new recoveries are also foreseen for several habitats and species. The robust and generalist species as well as the invasive species are foreseen to continue to be favoured and spread, while rare, endemic and specialist species will continue to decline. Biodiversity is changed and can be lost by the way the land is used, which results in

    Extractions: © Environment Australia Biodiversity is the variety of all life forms: the different plants, animals and micro-organisms, their genes and the ecosystems of which they are a part. Australia is one of the most biologically diverse countries in the world, with a large portion of its species found nowhere else in the world. We depend on biodiversity for our survival and quality of life. The most significant impediment to the conservation and management of biodiversity is our lack of knowledge about it and the effects of human population and activities on it. Ecosystem processes: biodiversity underpins the processes that make life possible. Healthy ecosystems are necessary for maintaining and regulating: atmospheric quality, climate, fresh water, marine productivity, soil formation, cycling of nutrients and waste disposal. Ethics: no species - and no generation - has the right to sequester Earth's resources solely for its own benefit.

    Extractions: Skip Navigation WHAT'S NEW CONTACTS COMMENTS ... SEARCH BIODIVERSITY Go back to: DEH Home Biodiversity Threatened Species ... Administrative Guidelines on Significance Australia is home to more than one million species, many of which are found nowhere else in the world. About 85 per cent of flowering plants, 84 per cent of mammals, more than 45 per cent of birds, and 89 per cent of inshore, temperate-zone fish are endemic - that is they are only found in Australia. Changes to the landscape and native habitat as a result of human activity has put many of these unique species at risk. Over the last two hundred years many species of plants and animals have become extinct. For the other species of plants and animals whose survival is threatened a range of management and conservation measures are in place. The Australian Government is working in partnership with state, territory and local governments, non-government organisations, tertiary institutions and community groups to ensure the protection of our native species. The Australian Government mechanism for national environment protection and biodiversity conservation is the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). The EPBC Act provides for:

The Academy of Natural Sciences has established The Institute for Mongolian Biodiversity and Ecological Studies to study Mongolia's environment and assist its peoples in both conserving these resources and encouraging economic development through ecological tourism. For an interesting review and perspective on the Academy's program in Mongolia and its significance for biodiversity and environmental protection, please see the article written by Malcolm Scully (Special Editor) and published in the March 24, 2000 issue of the

As well, it facilitates access to and exchange of information on biodiversity around the world. At the national level, the CHM serves the information needs of those organisations involved in implementing the provisions of the Convention and the National Strategy for the Conservation of Australia's Biological Diversity. The Department of the Environment and Heritage has developed the Clearing House Information Manager to promote the exchange of information on the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity ( CBD ) and the National Strategy for the Conservation of Australia's Biological Diversity. The objective of the Clearing-House Information Manager is to raise awareness and understanding of both the Convention and the Strategy while also facilitating access to a range of related information.

    Extractions: June 2004 The Institute for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Dynamics (IBED) was founded in 2000 by the Faculty of Science as a response to some of the major challenges to modern science. These challenges are to understand man-made as well as natural global change and their impact on biodiversity. A truly integrated approach is required to meet these challenges, covering the full complexity of the interactions between living organisms and their physical and chemical environment

During operation and at closure, significant efforts are made to re-create productive habitat for species identified near the site. Our ability to integrate biodiversity and economic values in land-use management is now being enhanced through aerial photography and satellite imagery and the use of geographic information systems (GIS).

36. EEA - Biodiversity Change
    Collection of indicators, reports, links, data sets and targets on changes in European biodiversity.  
    http://themes.eea.eu.int/Environmental_issues/biodiversity/
    
    Extractions: Glossary Biodiversity change Europe's natural environment is a diverse one – it features a wide range of genes, species, ecosystems, and habitats. This biodiversity is the environment’s 'insurance policy', because it ensures the environment’s ability to adapt to changes caused by anything from volcanic activity to human disruption of the landscape. Declining biodiversity is also an alarm bell, indicating that society’s overall impact on the environment is too heavy. The EEA reports presented in this section should certainly set some bells ringing. Although certain pollution levels are falling, and nature protection is becoming better integrated into urban planning, agriculture, and other policies, biodiversity across the EU is still under threat from a wide range of sources. webmaster@eea.eu.int
