The vast majority of human activity throughout history has occurred in land areas that support agriculture, habitat, and various natural resources. Therefore, human beings have always been in interactivity with the environment.  The environment is the socle of an immense quantity resources that should be managed and protected for the well-being of the future generations.   

Environmental resource management is the management of the interaction and impact of human societies on the environment. It is not, as the phrase might suggest, the management of the environment itself. We then understand that we should also manage our interaction with the environment this environment is the origin and the box of the wealth present in this globe.  

Environmental resource management should be promoted because a disorganized protection of the environment could harm the Earth in the future. 

Example: Lands Management  

Land management is the process of managing the use and development (in both urban and rural settings) of land resources. Land resources are used for a variety of purposes which may include organic agriculture, reforestation, water resource management and ecotourism projects. 

In the last years, we have noticed Degraded Agricultural Lands that are threatening World?s Food Production Capacity. Nearly forty percent of the world?s agricultural land is seriously degraded, which could undermine the long-term productive capacity of those soils, according to scientists at the International Food Policy Research Institute  

As a crucial Land management example: The Government of Turkey, UNCCD, Korea and the Global Environment Facility, are already providing technical assistance to 60 countries to support them in setting their national targets on Lands Management and Protection with the project Land Degradation Neutrality Target Setting Project (LDN TS).
