The natural biodiversity of BC does not only keep the ecosystem healthy but it is also a major plus for the economical and social impact of the region. There are many actions that can be implemented in order to help conserve and protect BC\u2019s ecosystem and keep it healthy. The improvement of species management can be studied on a landscape viewing scale that can be done by developing clear government priorities concerning species at risk as well as identifying and understanding the needs for each species to survive and thrive within the habitat area. The development of multi-species approach focuses on the management of different species at once, with a focus on the regional landscape to implement a priority species at risk action plan within provincial sub-region. The creation of a landscape-level program could be required to monitor conditions and environmental trends with the limitation of existing data. There is also a need to provide the most up-to-date information to support the identification, management, and recovery of species at risk. The best way to do this is to encourage data submission through streamline policies and procedure. Furthermore, the creation of a procedure to ensure priority action in order to identify species that should be prioritized for protection and for an assessment of the status of species. Moreover, tool improvement will facilitate the submission of data to the province. A partnership and cooperation between all levels of government, First Nations, conservation groups and private owners should be able to share more information between them in order to have a more active conservation plan.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www2.gov.bc.ca\/assets\/gov\/environment\/plants-animals-and-ecosystems\/species-ecosystems-at-risk\/species-at-risk-documents\/five-year-plan-for-species-at-risk-in-bc_low-res.pdf\">Protecting Vulnerable Species<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Main Sections The land is one organism.
