As a result, they have aggravated land-use and ethnic conflicts, environmental degradation, food insecurity and poverty. It can be reversed through environmental knowledge, regional integration, effective land-use planning, and conservation-based sustainable utilisation of the natural resources.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Universal-Publishers.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47034785890544,"sku":"9781581124835","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781581124835_p0.jpg?v=1763801045","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781581124835","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
