Strategies of land conservation 

1.    Preservation

2.    Restriction

3.    Remediation

4.    Mitigation

Preservation

Preservation of the environment means “Land and their natural resources should not be consumed by humans & should instead be maintained in their pristine form “.

Remediation

Remediation is the process of cleaning the contaminated area using relatively mild or nondestructive methods. Main target is clean and restore the area while using it.

Mitigation

The process of replacing a degraded site with a healthy site that is of equal ecological value in a different location. Main target is reducing the unwanted usage of land.

Land Conservation in University of Moratuwa

Use of bricks as a retaining wall

  

                                   Re growing of grass layer after construction based on 

                                           green concept to reduce soil erosion        

                                                                                                                                                        

 

  

                                          

                                                   Layer of grass is added and this area isn’t normally

brazed except cleaning purposes.

Angled tar road is covered the area to reduce soil erosion during rainy time. Right side area should be conserved immediately.
