Description:
This book is dedicated to a vital resource for society - natural resources. Every material thing in our society ultimately comes from natural resources. For example, coal, oil, soil, water, land, minerals, forests, and timber, as well as the air we breathe, are provided by natural resources. This is why the protection of these resources is so vital. With this in mind, this book is devoted to the management of natural resources. It is divided into three sections. The first section addresses policy-related matters. The second section is dedicated to the management of individual natural resources – wildlife, forests, wetlands, and surface and groundwater resources. The final section comprises two chapters focused on organic waste and fertilization, aiming to enhance the sustainability of agricultural practices. All these topics are essential for the future management of natural resources, as their conservation and protection are vital for the continuation of economic activity and social functions.
