Description

Explore the vital importance of mountain ecosystems with Himalaya: Mountains of Destiny by Springer. This book examines the various ways humans see and engage with the natural world. It highlights the necessity of recognizing and respecting the traditional practices of indigenous peoples who have lived in these regions for generations. Mountain regions cover approximately one-fourth of the Earth's terrestrial surface. They serve as home to nearly one-tenth of the global population and provide essential goods and services to more than half of humanity. Because of their global impact, these environments received significant attention at the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro's Earth Summit. This text is designed for higher education and those studying earth sciences. It provides a deep look into the role mountain environments play in our global system and the need to protect these unique landscapes.
