Conservation is not a trade-off between economic development and conservation of the natural world. We must find a way to co-exist with natural resources. Our lives and progress of civilization are all depending on it. However, conservation faces three major challenges:
1. Far too few people care about conservation.
2. Those who do care are divided in how they approach conservation.
3. The economic model supporting conservation is faltering.
