Natural resource management (NRM)

Definding NRM

While it is surprisingly difficult to define natural resource, the World Bank offers a helpful definition of natural resource management:

"The sustainable utilization of major natural resources, such as land, water, air, minerals, forests, fisheries, and wild flora and fauna. Together, these resources provide the ecosystem services that underpin human life."

In one way or another, nearly every page at EarthWeb.info concerns natural resources & natural resource management. This page mostly collates information that is self-described as concerning the generic topic of "natural resources" and "natural resource management" without any other more specific indicators.
