论自然遗产地保护

Study on Natural Heritage Protection

20世纪人类创造了惊人的物质财富,同时也对自然遗产地产生了巨大的影响和冲击。保护遗产不仅是提高群众保护意识的重要手段,同时对区域的可持续发展具有重要意义。我国有丰富的生态系统类型和生物多样性,具有令世界羡慕的文化底蕴和传统,相对于数目十分有限的世界自然遗产而言,我国还有大量的同属＂世界级＂、＂国家级＂的珍贵自然遗产需要加强保护。然而当前国内对遗产地的保护与管理方面存在着立法不完善、管理体制不健全、投入不足、科研力量薄弱等诸多方面的问题,这些问题在城市建设和区域发展的过程中表现得尤为突出。在区域发展中如何保护和管理大自然与人类智慧创造的自然遗产具有重要的科学、文化和实践意义。

Natural heritages include natu- ral features consisting of physical and bio- logical formations, geological and physio- graphical formations and the habitat of threatened species, natural sites or pre- cisely delineated natural areas, which are of outstanding universal value from the point of view of science or aesthetics or conservation. China is a country with the complex and varied terrains and land- forms as well as unique types of ecologi- cal system, which have created plentiful natural heritages at world level and na- tional level. However, there exist many problems such as defective laws and regu- lations, unsound management frame- work, inadequate public input and lack of scientific research in the protection and management of heritages, especially dur- ing the process of urban construction and regional development. Therefore, the pro- tection and management of natural heri- tages play a significant role in the region- al sustainable development.
