Ecosystem Restoration and Conservation Concepts

The video tutorial explores the concepts of preservation, conservation, and restoration of ecosystems. It discusses how human activities impact the environment and the importance of sustainable development. Preservation involves protecting ecosystems to maintain their natural state, while conservation focuses on restoring resources like water and forests. Restoration aims to renew ecosystems damaged by human activities. Strategies for conservation include in situ and ex situ methods, and restoration efforts include reforestation and planting cover crops.
