The Neglected Creatures of Forests: Wild Bees by Yasemin Güler

“…The protection and preservation of these plant species, which means the area of food and protection for wildlife, is also important for the prevention of erosion. Better refurbishment of the trees in a degraded forest and the maintaining of pollination, which will ensure the preservation of the biological diversity of the forest, depends on the existence of adequate number and variety of bee species in that forest. …”

Agrolandscapes and their role in ensuring environmental safety by Larysa Piskunova, Tetiana Zubok, Alla Klepko, Kateryna Кarabach, Alina Kudryavytska

“…The results confirmed the hypothesis that effective management of agrolandscapes contributes to improving environmental safety and reducing negative environmental impacts, in particular, by controlling erosion and managing water resources. The conclusions emphasised the need to implement agroforestry, support environmental approaches in policies and a system of monitoring the state of agrolandscapes for the sustainable development of agricultural regions, which would facilitate adaptation to the challenges of climate change…”
