Description

Planning for a thriving natural environment at a whole-landscape scale is crucial. By connecting wildlife habitats together, planners can help nature recolonise towns and cities. This book provides a foundation for professionals in related fields to understand key concepts associated with biodiversity and apply them in practice. It explores how environmental policy has shifted from protecting rare species and nature reserves to a more holistic approach based on biodiversity. The guide covers changing approaches to conserving the natural environment, including environmental sustainability approaches and techniques for planners. Key topics include rebuilding biodiversity through habitat creation, enhancement, and restoration, as well as the 're-naturing' of cities. The book sets out tools and policies before identifying key lessons and implications for future policy development and planning practice.
