Natural Bio-diversity Conservation

Biological species are invaluable and important for human beings. They are the source of protein. Modern pharmaceutical multi-national companies do not only use many of them traditionally for medicines and Ayurvedic therapy but also.

Himalayan areas have particular conditions, known as Himalayan specificities that provide both problems and opportunities for sustainable Himalayan development. These include inaccessibility, the fragility of the natural environment, and the marginality of the people living there. The opportunities are based on the ecological, biological, and cultural diversities of Himalayan environments, which provide comparative advantages for specific developments. Conventional development approaches have tended to disregard the imperatives of these specificities.

These are all causative factors contributing to the current status of Himalayan natural resources. Solutions can only be found by looking at the Himalayan specificities of biodiversity conservation, sustainable utilization and economic development.
