Saving Natural Living Resources
SAVING NATURAL LIVING NATURAL RESOURCES
Some of the efforts to save or update biological natural data sources include:
Cultivation, which is a way to increase the number and quality of living things
The selective logging system is a way of exploiting timber plants by selecting plants which, if cut down, do not significantly affect the ecosystem.
Plant rejuvenation is an effort to maintain or increase yields by preparing replacement plants.
Reforestation or reforestation is an attempt to plant vacant or barren land.
For example: planting cashew or teak in limestone mountains.
Seasonal arrest, which is carried out at the time of arrest
the population is at a high level and not at the time of conditions that could cause extinction.
For example: no hunting during breeding.
The extinction of animal species, plants in an ecosystem can occur because human actions can damage the ecosystem as follows:
The hunt and capture of certain types of animals continuously will cause extinction.
Catching fish or shrimp continuously let alone using chemical and electric explosives because this method will kill from eggs to adults and can damage the environment.
The Role of Humans in the Environment
There are several roles of humans on the environment, namely:
Humans as the most ecologically dominant creatures means that humans have a great influence on the environment in which they live and other organisms.
Humans as creators making tools means humans in carrying out their activities need tools to facilitate their work.
Humans as robbers means that humans as omnivorous creatures (all-eaters) will eat food that is the food of other living things both carnivorous and herbivorous.
Humans as creatures that cause evolution means that for example orchid plants that previously could grow wild without needing watering and fertilizing, now that humans have been made as ornamental plants will not be able to flourish if not watered and fertilized.
Humans as impurity creatures Animal and plant waste can be destroyed naturally, while there are humans that are able to decompose in nature naturally there are not, this is the cause of the dirty ecosystem.
Examples of the Natural Environment
Some examples of natural environments in Indonesia are as follows:
The mountains
Mountains are landscapes in the form of continuous mountains. The air in the mountains is usually cool and some are very cold. The mountain area is very good for farming fruit, vegetables, and flowers.
Mountain areas can also be used as tourist attractions. Because of the beautiful scenery. Mountain areas that are overgrown with plants can absorb and store rainwater. This is useful to prevent erosion. Erosion is the erosion of land that can cause flooding and landslides.
River
The river also includes the appearance of nature. Rivers provide many benefits for humans. The benefits of rivers include bathing, washing, irrigation of agricultural land (irrigation) and transportation facilities (for large rivers outside of Java. However, many people do not appreciate the function of the river itself, much household waste and factory waste which without being processed first, it is found in the river.
Lake
Lake is a natural environment. The lake occurs because of a hollow in the nature that is filled with water, both from rain water and from springs in that place. The lake can also be used as a water reservoir. Lake is very beneficial for humans. The benefits of the lake for human life, among others, for the cultivation of freshwater fish, tourist attractions, irrigation or irrigation of rice fields, and sports facilities (rowing).
Beach
The beach is usually overgrown with coconut trees and mangrove plants which function to resist abrasion and erosion. The sea can also be used as a means of sports, such as swimming diving, water skiing, surfing, and sailboats.
Impact of Natural Damage
There are two factors of the impact of natural damage, namely:
Illegal logging (deforestation).
Illegal hunting.
Destroying mangrove forests.
Landfill swamps for settlement.
Throwing garbage in inappropriate place.
Wild buildings in watersheds (DAS).
Excessive use of natural resources is out of bounds.
Thus this guideline was compiled to become a guideline for implementing reforestation of protected forests and production forests and so on.
