The Importance of Heritage Preservation and Environmental Sustainability

March 12, 2015 By admin Leave a Comment

Environmental sustainability refers to actions and decisions that help protect wildlife, air, soil, and water bodies and reduce harm and negative impact on the natural world. Responsible decisions are key to sustainability and environmental preservation. Heritage preservation aims to preserve the culture and heritage of a nation, minority, or group for future generations.

Environmental Sustainability

A number of issues are of concern, including damage to cultivated and agricultural land, pollution of lakes, rivers, oceans, rivers, and the atmosphere and damage to the woodlands and forests. Small and large businesses are to blame for environmental pollution and unsustainable practices that contribute to the depletion of nonrenewable resources, endangering many species. The rate of depletion of nonrenewable resources must be roughly comparable to the rate at which renewable resources are created. When it comes to pollution, waste generation is a source of concern to the extent to which waste exceeds the capacity for processing and disposal. Sustainable waste disposal practices should be implemented to this end. To help preserve renewable resources, there should be a balance between the rate of regeneration and harvest.

Heritage Preservation

Heritage preservation aims to protect and preserve natural heritage, intangible culture (practices, customs, and traditions), and cultural properties. The latter encompasses historic buildings, artifacts, artworks, documents, books, and monuments of historic value. Clothing, machines, and historic places are also cultural properties. Heritage preservation covers film, architectural, and art conservation and increases the value of restored properties. This helps attract tourists to the area and preserves the historic integrity of cities, areas, and neighborhoods. Heritage preservation also refers to the conservation and preservation of languages, traditions, oral history, myths and folklore, values, and beliefs. Finally, it also encompasses natural heritage preservation to protect biodiversity, rare species, and life on Earth.

Different conservation practices are used, including preventive care, treatment, documentation, examination, and others. These practices help preserve sites, structures, specimens, and collections of social, religious, or historic significance and minimize deterioration.
