Sustainable Development01:43

Sustainable Development

13.2K
As the human population continues to grow and use resources, we must be mindful of our planet’s natural limits. Sustainable development provides a pathway to maintain and improve human life now while also ensuring that future generations will have the resources that they need. The long-term success of sustainability efforts rests on understanding the interplay between human actions and ecological systems.

Biodiversity and Human Values

13.0K
Human civilization relies on biodiversity in many ways. Sudden changes in species biodiversity result in environmental changes that can modify weather patterns and therefore human civilizations.

Threats to Biodiversity

22.1K
There have been five major extinction events throughout geological history, resulting in the elimination of biodiversity, followed by a rebound of species that adapted to the new conditions. In the current geological epoch, the Holocene, there is a sixth extinction event in progress. This mass extinction has been attributed to human activities and is thus provisionally called the Anthropocene. In 2019 the human population reached 7.7 billion people and is projected to comprise 10 billion by...

Keystone Species01:39

Keystone Species

21.5K
Measures of species biodiversity, such as richness (i.e., the number of species present) and evenness (i.e., their relative abundance), describe an ecological community’s structure. Many factors affect community structure, including abiotic factors (e.g., sunlight and nutrients), disturbances (e.g., fire or flood), species interactions (e.g., predation or competition), and chance events (e.g., foreign species invasion). Certain species—such as keystone species—also play a...

Naturalistic Observations

15.4K
If you want to understand how behavior occurs, one of the best ways to gain information is to simply observe the behavior in its natural context. However, people might change their behavior in unexpected ways if they know they are being observed. How do researchers obtain accurate information when people tend to hide their natural behavior? As an example, imagine that your professor asks everyone in your class to raise their hand if they always wash their hands after using the restroom. Chances...

Ethical Standards II01:23

Ethical Standards II

Ethical standards are the backbone of nursing practice, guiding nurses as they interact with patients, families, and colleagues. These standards are crucial for providing safe, empathetic care centered on the patient's needs.
Nurses are entrusted with upholding various ethical principles and standards. Nurses forge solid therapeutic relationships using trust, empathy, autonomy, confidentiality, and professional competence.
Confidentiality is crucial, embodying respect for individual privacy...

Area of Science:

  • Ecology
  • Conservation Biology
  • Social-Ecological Systems

Background:

  • Wild plant and mushroom foraging presents a duality, offering both ecological benefits and potential detriments to biodiversity.
  • Sustainable resource management is crucial for maintaining ecological balance and biodiversity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the role of stewardship practices in promoting the sustainable use of wild species.
  • To highlight the significance of care, knowledge, and agency in foraging behaviors.

Main Methods:

  • This study examines the concept of stewardship practices within foraging communities.
  • It analyzes how these practices influence the sustainability of wild species harvesting across diverse social-ecological systems.

Main Results:

  • Stewardship practices are widespread among foragers globally.
  • These practices are foundational for sustainable wild species utilization.

Conclusions:

  • Integrating an understanding of stewardship into research and policymaking is essential.
  • Recognizing and supporting these practices can enhance biodiversity conservation efforts related to wild harvesting.
