These parks and reserves are set apart to forever remain in contrast to those places where human activities, technologies, and developments prevail. But even as the biodiversity crisis accelerates, a growing number of voices are suggesting that protected areas are pass. Conservation, they argue, should instead focus on lands managed for human useworking landscapesand abandon the goal of preventing human-caused extinctions in favor of maintaining ecosystem services to support people. If such arguments take hold, we risk losing support for the unique qualities and values of wild, undeveloped nature. Protecting the Wild offers a spirited argument for the robust protection of the natural world. In it, experts from five continents reaffirm that parks, wilderness areas, and other reserves are an indispensablealbeit insufficientmeans to sustain species, subspecies, key habitats, ecological processes, and evolutionary potential. A companion volume to Keeping the Wild: Against the Domestication of Earth, Protecting the Wild provides a necessary addition to the conversation about the future of conservation in the so-called Anthropocene, one that will be useful for academics, policymakers, and conservation practitioners at all levels, from local land trusts to international NGOs. 001398923 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001398923 650_0 $$aProtected areas. 001398923 650_0 $$aNature conservation. 001398923 650_0 $$aWilderness areas. 001398923 650_0 $$aNational parks and reserves. 001398923 7001_ $$aWuerthner, George,$$eeditor. 001398923 7001_ $$aCrist, Eileen,$$d1961-$$eeditor. 001398923 7001_ $$aButler, Tom,$$d1963-$$eeditor. 001398923 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tProtecting the wild$$z1610915488$$w(OCoLC)876350479 001398923 852__ $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 001398923 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4509454$$zOnline Access 001398923 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:726586$$pGLOBAL_SET 001398923 980__ $$aEBOOK 001398923 980__ $$aBIB 001398923 982__ $$aEbook 001398923 983__ $$aOnline 001398923 994__ $$a92$$bISE
