  • Chapter 4: Biodiversity and Landscape
    Offaly County Development Plan 2021-2027: Draft Stage Chapter 4 Biodiversity and Landscape Chapter 4: Biodiversity and Landscape 4.1 Introduction Biodiversity or biological diversity simply refers to all living things on earth; people, plants, animals, fungi and micro-organisms, the ecosystems and habitats which they form part of and their interdependence and interconnectedness with each other. The conservation of biodiversity is an integral part of good environmental management. Natural capital is the earths stock of natural assets which include geology, soil, air, water and all living things. It is from this natural capital that people derive a wide range of services often called ecosystem, services which make human life possible. In line with Regional Policy Objective (RPO) 3.4 of the Eastern and Midland Regional Spatial and Economic Strategy, the Council promotes an ecosystems services approach in the preparation of this County Development Plan. The four main types of ecosystem services are provisioning, regulating, habitat and cultural, each of which are defined in Table 4.1 below; Table 4.1 Definition of Each Type of Ecosystem Service Type of Ecosystem Services Definition Provisioning services Products obtained from ecosystems such as food, fresh water, wood, fibre, genetic resources and medicines. Regulating services Benefits obtained from the regulation of ecosystem processes such as climate regulation, natural hazard regulation, water purification, waste management, pollination and pest control. Habitat services Provision of habitats for migratory species and to maintain the viability of gene-pools. Cultural services Non-material benefits that people obtain from ecosystems such as spiritual enrichment, intellectual development, recreation and aesthetic values.
