                                                   •Diversity of Habitats

•Reconciling Conservation and Development Goals: a big no to
the disdain for science

•Economic zones interspersed with Ecological Zones: not just
wooded areas, but a protected range of habitats that are
facilitated to perform their natural functions, provide aesthetic,
recreational and learning opportunities

•New age – human centered technological solutions: for
addressing issues of waste management, sewage treatment and
availability of potable water

•Preventing man-made (natural) disasters: notably floods and
water stagnation

•Enhancing ecological and social standards – to facilitate
ambient living conditions: creating new livelihood opportunities
