Meaning of Biodiversity:
Biodiversity is the variety and variability oflife on Earth. It encompasses the
differences within and among all living
organisms at their different levels of
biological organization genes, species,
populations, communities, habitats as well
as their interactions.

Biodiversity Management:
To help companies manage theirenvironmental impacts, environmental
management systems (EMS) have
been developed.

What is ISO 14.001
ISO 14.001 is an international environmental
management system developed by ISO
(International Organization for Standardization).
The prefix 14 indicates it is an environmental
management system, the number 001 that it is
a general management system.
ISO 14.001 only implicitly focuses onbiodiversity.

Impact on biodiversity:
Direct.
Indirect.
7/28/2019 Presentation on biodiversity management,forest management, water management

For example:
In cement industry:
Direct impacts: Conversion/destruction of habitats through land clearance for the development of
production and mining sites, as well as the construction of access roads and other
auxiliary infrastructures.
Alteration of habitats through mining, management and rehabilitation of quarries .
Disturbance of wildlife by noise from blasting and quarry traffic, and increased human
access.
Emission of pollutants to land (e.g. deposits of cement kiln dust), air (dust emissions)
and water (run-off from tailings) .
7/28/2019 Presentation on biodiversity management,forest management, water management
10/30
Indirect impacts: Contributions to climate change (which in turn has a major impact
on biodiversity) caused by the emissions of the cement plants, the
use of energy in cement production and transportation
Procurement processes within the companys supply chains and theproducts it purchases (e.g. fuel, additives, construction of new
plants)
Social and associated environmental changes that might be caused
locally or regionally through company operations.

Forest management
7/28/2019 Presentation on biodiversity management,forest management, water management
12/30
Definition:
Forest management is providing a forest theproper care so that it remains healthy and
vigorous and provides the products and the
amenities the landowner desires.
"Forest management is the application of
appropriate technical forestry principles,
practices, and business techniques (e.g.,
accounting, cost/benefit analysis, etc.) to themanagement of a forest to achieve the owner's
objectives."
7/28/2019 Presentation on biodiversity management,forest management, water management
13/30
The Planning Process:
1)Identify Landowner Objectives.
Examples of Forest Landowner Objectives:
Source of Income
Product Yield Security
Wildlife Habitat
Pride & Self-Satisfaction
2)Resource inventory
3) Develop and Implement the Management Strategy
4) Review the Management Plan

Types of Written Plans :
Management and Stewardship Plans.

Why Have a Forest Management
Plan?
Forest management plans allow youto sort out what you really want from
your forest and help you successfully
and efficiently reach your goals.

How Do You Do Forest Management
Planning?
The six basic steps for developing a forestmanagement plan for your property are:
1. Seek the assistance of a professional.
2. Determine your goals and objectives.
3. Inventory and evaluate your resources. 4. Formulate an activity schedule.
5. Implement activities and monitor progresstoward meeting your intended goals.
6. Review your plan every few years and update itwhen necessary.

Components of a Forest
Management Plan:
Should include:
1) Ownership goals and management objectives: this is theheart of the plan and describes what you want to gain from yourproperty and resources.
2) Maps: help to describe the property and resources and mayinclude topographic maps, soils maps, cover type or standmaps, and aerial photos, if available.
3) Property boundary description: a legal description of yourproperty location and acreage.
4) Resource inventory data: descriptions of water bodies,
wildlife, vegetation, soils, topography, and access. Timberinventory data should include information on the species, sizes,quality, and quantity of timber; stand structure and condition;and the presence and extent of forest pests (bark beetles,mistletoe, etc).

5) Management recommendations:detailed management options andhow they relate to ownership goalsand objectives.
6) Activity schedule forrecommendations: specifies a timelinefor management activities.

Water management:
Water management is the activity ofplanning, developing, distributing and
managing the optimum use of water
resources. Water management is concerned with
the use of water in industry and
agriculture.

Water resources:
Water resources are defined as thesources by which we can get the
water for our different types of uses
and also those sources that gives thehuge benefit to the life of the humans
is referred to as the water resources.
The water that is used in theproduction of different types of useful
products also included in the water
resources

Types of water resources:
Saltwater resources.
Surface water resources.
Ground water resources.
7/28/2019 Presentation on biodiversity management,forest management, water management
23/30
Ninety-seven percent of the
water on the Earth is salt
water. Only three percent is
fresh water; slightly over two
thirds of this is frozen in
glaciers and polar ice caps.
The remaining unfrozen
freshwater is found mainly as
groundwater, with only a smallfraction present above ground
or in the air
