Environmental ethics drawn from the narratives provide an integrated platform where formal and informal institutions of sustainability can be strengthened, supporting transformation towards sustainability through enhancing ecological consciousness, skills, and attitudes.
Overlooking cultural resources results in loss of cultural identity associated with certain habitats; loss of tourism, recreational and educational opportunities; decline in local ecological knowledge, skills and technology pertaining to habitat management; and loss of opportunities for social and cultural capital.
Traditional forest skills have come into alliance with ecological science and new marketing and fundraising techniques, making shellfish once again an economic force in the region and, in Tanbi at least, a benign one.
The closure threat follows a report last year warning of "alarming" gaps in ecological knowledge and skills, even among practicing professionals – despite the growing need for evidence of climate and other environmental changes to back up policies for fishing and farming, anti-pollution laws, and revolutionising the energy supply to cut greenhouse gases.
Application of these skills to ecological systems is not a giant leap.
This study could not have been realised without the astonishing ecological knowledge and forest skills of our tracking team, and particular thanks go to Gregoire Mambeleme, Eric Mossimbo, Sylvan Imalimo and Mammadou Gassagna.
Research on animals comprises another body of literature describing delayed gratification characteristics that are not as easily tested in human samples, such as ecological factors affecting the skill.
Nevertheless, the ability to distinguish unlikely survivors from more fit individuals, even coarsely, can be valuable for designing experiments, and careful interpretation of putative survival skills can improve ecological models designed to project the fate of larval cohorts.
Aligning key ideas of the Athletic Skills Model and ecological dynamics theory, we propose how the sport of parkour could provide a representative and adaptive platform for developing athletic skill (e.g. coordination, timing, balance, agility, spatial awareness and muscular strength).
