Biodiversity Protection and Restoration Techniques

Protection and Restoration Techniques
Biodiversity banking: It is the process by which biodiversity loss can be reduced by placing monetary value on ecosystems services.
Gene banks: Gene banks help to preserve genetic material of living organisms. Location- specific approaches are less useful for protecting migratory species. Therefore there is need to create wildlife reserves, national parks and biosphere reserves.
 Legal status: Environmental laws are complex.
They involve treaties, conventions, statues regulation and common laws that operate to regulate the interaction of humanity and the natural environment. There are two major area for which laws are enforced. One, related to pollution control and remediation and second, resources conservation and management. Pollution has no boundaries, making international law an important aspect of environmental law.
Resource allocation: focusing on limited areas of higher potential biodiversity promises greater immediate return and areas that retain most of the original diversity, which does not require restoration. Biosphere reserves, national parks and biodiversity hotspots are the examples of setting up of resource allocation.
