BENEFITS OF ECOSYSTEM MANAGEMENT

Ecosystem management is a process that aims to conserve major ecological services and restore natural resources while meeting the socioeconomic, political and cultural and needs of current and future generations. The following infographic was published in 2009 by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) entitled "Protected Areas: Ecosystem Management". Proper ecosystem management can provide coastal protection, increase local incomes while providing additional jobs, preserve freshwater sources, improve fisheries, and help regulate global warming.
