Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history of the British nature conservation movement describes an organized movement which is now 100 years old. The text traces the early campaigns for an end to the millinery industry and for freedom to walk the mountains, the legislation for bird protection and access to the countryside, the battles against pesticides and pollution, farming and forestry, and the present concerns with global issues and the presumed greening of governments. The book questions governmental concern for the environment and the efficacy of the established conservation bodies. The author argues that the purchase of reserves and the saving of remnant populations is not enough; the movement must draw itself together in order to address the global issues which it has previously avoided.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nature Conservation in Britain covers the whole history of the conservancy movement and discusses the problems of managing conservation areas and the conflict between technological progress and the maintenance of wild life and wilderness. This edition is exclusive to newnaturalists.com To promote the conservation of nature and natural resources has been one of the principal aims behind the New Naturalist Library; this volume thus occupies a central position in the series. It was completed shortly before his death by Sir Dudley Stamp, who was both a member of the editorial board from the beginning and a world authority on the use and abuse of land. He first discusses problems peculiar to Britain: a small country with a wide variety of habitats, a large population, an ever-growing demand for land and rapidly changing conditions. He then traces the whole history of the conservancy movement and discusses the problems of managing conservation areas and the conflict between technological progress - in agriculture, forestry, water-mining, industry, housing and land-planning - and the maintenance of wild life and wilderness. This is followed by lists of all National Parks, reserves and areas of outstanding natural beauty in Britain today, private or state managed and an analysis of work in progress, unsolved problems and future aims.
