Download or read book Green Schools Globally written by Annette Gough and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together stories of the green schools movement ((Eco Schools, Enviroschools, Green Schools, Sustainable Schools, ResourceSmart Schools etc) in several countries around the world, with a focus on the impact of the movement on the development and implementation of education for sustainable development in each of the countries. In particular, each story will explain the history of the movement per country, its current status, achievements, obstacles and broader impact. There have been a number of evaluations of these school movements at a national or more local level, and numerous articles and chapters have been published on aspects of these schools’ activities, but to date these have not been brought together in a single volume that focuses attention on the impact of the movement on education for sustainable development in each country. This is the purpose of this volume. The green schools movement focuses on a whole school approach which aims to include everyone (students, teachers and the local community), to improve school environments, including resource usage and the environmental footprint of the school, to motivate students to take on environmental problems and seek resolutions particularly at a local level but also thinking globally, and to improve students' attitudes and behaviours as part of developing a sustainable mind set.

Download or read book Gestion des habitats naturels et biodiversit written by BOUZILLÉ Jan-Bernard and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2007-07-18 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La mise en place du réseau des zones spéciales de conservation par le biais de l'opération Natura 2000, l'établissement des plans de gestion des parcs nationaux et des réserves naturelles de France, le transfert aux régions de la responsabilité de sites sensibles les nombreux programmes de sauvegarde de la biodiversité nécessitent la mise en uvre d'outils et de démarches pratiques peu intégrés dans la formation actuelle des écologistes. Gestion des habitats naturels et biodiversité vient combler cette lacune : en s'appuyant sur les concepts les plus récents de l'écologie des communautés, de l'écologie de la conservation et de la restauration, ainsi que de la phytosociologie cet ouvrage s'attache à l'élaboration de démarches raisonnées pour définir des modalités appropriées de gestion des habitats naturels. Gestion des habitats naturels et biodiversité vise un double objectif : présenter précisément des méthodes de travail pour donner au lecteur les moyens de les mettre en uvre pratiquement , exposer des concepts actuels indispensables pour conduire des opérations de gestion qui respectent une démarche scientifique raisonnée et rigoureuse. La première partie de l'ouvrage traite de l'identification des habitats en ayant recours aux démarches de la phytosociologie. L'auteur réintroduit cette discipline en tant que maillon essentiel de la connaissance des milieux et propose des informations pratiques permettant d'en exploiter les résultats (méthodes d'analyse numérique, utilisation des logiciels). Cet ouvrage est le premier à proposer un tel apprentissage à ces méthodes. Le deuxième volet du livre faire le point sur les concepts les plus récents de l'écologie des communautés, en particulier des communautés végétales. De même sont présentés les derniers développements de l'écologie de la conservation et de la restauration. S'appuyant sur des références internationales, les démarches scientifiques proposées sont inédites en langue française.
