Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. For most of modern history, biodiversity remained an invisible stakeholder in the story of development. Forests were cleared, rivers dammed, wetlands reclaimed, and landscapes reshaped in the name of industrial growth, food security, infrastructure, and economic progress. Nature absorbed the consequences, but rarely influenced the decisions that caused them.The Silent Stakeholder traces how that relationship changed. Beginning with the Industrial Revolution, the book examines the ecological consequences of colonial extraction, the two World Wars, the Cold War, mining, large dams, the Green Revolution, and the rise of the petroleum economy. Across different political systems, ecosystems were treated as expendable resources. The costs accumulated through habitat loss, pollution, species decline, displacement, and social conflict.The environmental awakening of the 1970s and 1980s gradually changed public policy and institutional thinking. In India, movements such as Silent Valley and the emergence of major environmental laws reflected a growing recognition that development could not be measured only through output, cost, or engineering feasibility. Globally, international agreements, environmental impact assessment, lender safeguards, and sustainable-development frameworks began to bring biodiversity into formal decision-making. The shift became more pronounced in the 1990s and 2000s. Biodiversity was no longer viewed only as a conservation concern. It became a regulatory, financial, and reputational issue. Development projects increasingly had to account for ecological risks before receiving approvals, investment, or institutional support. The language of safeguards, mitigation, monitoring, and accountability entered project planning. In the 2010s and 2020s, this transition accelerated further. Biodiversity became linked with climate resilience, natural capital, ecosystem services, ESG reporting, responsible investment, carbon markets, and nature-related financial disclosure. Forests, wetlands, mangroves, rivers, and pollinators are now increasingly recognised as systems that sustain economies, communities, and infrastructure. Projects that ignore ecological realities may face regulatory delays, legal disputes, community resistance, reputational damage, stranded assets, and financial loss.The book also explains how biodiversity must be considered across the entire life cycle of a development project. Screening identifies early risks and potential no-go areas. Scoping defines the issues that require attention. Baseline studies establish ecological conditions. Impact assessment examines how construction and operation may affect habitats, species, ecosystem services, and communities. The mitigation hierarchy guides avoidance, minimisation, restoration, and, where appropriate, compensation. Monitoring and adaptive management ensure that commitments work in practice.The Silent Stakeholder is also written for students and early-career professionals. It challenges the assumption that biodiversity careers are limited to universities, protected areas, and conservation NGOs. Ecologists now work in consulting firms, banks, renewable-energy companies, infrastructure projects, ESG teams, government programmes, international agencies, and technology start-ups. Field knowledge remains essential, but it must increasingly be combined with GIS, remote sensing, data analysis, environmental law, lender standards, communication, and an understanding of finance and policy.This is not a conventional conservation textbook. It is a material factor in whether development can endure. It asks readers to treat nature as part of every serious decision. This item is printed on demand.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The present investigation study was carried out on two temporary water pools along with a permanent water body as control site. The aim of the study was to assess the change inspecies composition on temporal scale in selected study sites. Study was conducted from September 2013 to March 2014 with three seasons. i.e. monsoon, winter and summer. Bothfield and Laboratory work was done during the study period. Species population count, species abundance and their compositions were observed in the field while the limnologicalprofile of the temporary water pools were done in the laboratory of PG Department of Conservation Biology, Durgapur Government College. Statistical and diversity indices studies were computed by PAST and SPSS. Extreme care was given towards the assessmentof anuran and odonates as they were the most dependable species on the temporary water pools. The study reflected no change in the species composition of anurans but significantchange in the odonates. Among the anurans Cricket frog was found to be positively co- related with the pH value of the water in the temporary pools. Skippering frogs were alsopositively co-related with the Cricket frogs. 72 pp. Englisch.…
