Sustainable development is the central theme of our age and is presented as a pathway towards that which is good and desirable for society. Many economic activities, in particular those related to crop, livestock farming, forestry, and fisheries, concentrate on biodiversity. Biodiversity and ecosystems feature prominently across many of the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and associated targets. They contribute directly to human well-being and development priorities. Biodiversity and ecosystem services that support human lives and livelihoods continue to be degraded and lost at an alarming rate despite their important roles in sustainable development. In the context of this development, it is anticipated that this book will provide an overview of sustainable development and the value of biodiversity, as well as highlight some of the advances made with regard to biodiversity and its role in creating a sustainable future.
