What is nature conservation?

The concept of conservation itself was born in the 19th century, but it was not a concept until the International Conservation Union of Nature (IUCN) was founded in 1948.

The term "sustainable development" first appeared in IUCN's report in 1980. In 1982, the "World Nature Charter" was adopted by the United Nations. It reflects the global perception of nature conservation and then protection issues at the time.

In 2000, 193 UN member states and many international organizations adopted the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) and agreed to achieve them by 2015. The seventh goal describes many actions that help protect the environment and ensure its durability.

After all, this country seems to systematically control the heading of world economy and political crisis, not the record of conservation of nature. Of course, people and politicians are overwhelmed by other priorities. Several weeks ago, the Greek Parliament proposed a new bill that would make a big blow to the forest - if a bill was passed, it would create a legal precedent, which is effectively a house built illegally in the forest The terrestrial ecosystem which legalizes it has a big influence, more than 20% of the Greek native species is prevalent. Only 48 hours later, after the WWF launched the abusive campaign, the Minister of the Environment withdrew measures and changed the bill.

There are three major drawbacks to existing nature protection literature. One is due to excessive attention to the new order and the era of reform, ignoring the importance of the early decades of the independent era in the development of nature conservation. Another major disadvantage is that there is no description of the regional dynamics of nature conservation during the colonial period and the late colonial period. There is a strong impression that the early 20 years of the independent era (often called the era of colonialization) made a gap in the history of nature conservation in Indonesia. Therefore, this paper attempts to bridge our knowledge gap on these issues by discussing the conservation of the Besuki region between the colonial era and the post colonial era.

In October 1948, as a United Nations for nature conservation in the Fontainebleau, France, it was founded as the United Nations for Nature Conservation (IUCN), a worldwide conservation organization that was a network of environmental groups. Sustainable use of ecology It was renamed the United Nations (IUCN) for conservation of natural and natural resources in 1956 and it was known as the World Conservation Union for Nature (IUCN) from 1990 to 2008. IUCN is the world's oldest global environmental organization. The headquarters is in Gland, Switzerland.
