Global Land-Use Development Trends: Traditional Cultural Landscapes Under Threat

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Restoration of Multifunctional Cultural Landscapes

Part of the book series: Landscape Series ((LAEC,volume 30))

Abstract

The world’s mega trends of land-use and landscape development are discussed, which are urbanization and land-use intensification, particularly considering their negative consequences for the ecological as well as the socio-economic environment. Trade-offs of land-use intensification such as the loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services, eutrophication, soil and water contamination and its implications for human health, soil erosion, water consumption, soil salinization and desertification, climate change, and socio-economic impacts are qualitatively and quantitatively assessed. As another mega trend of landscape development, so far not sufficiently recognized by global environmental policy, land abandonment is outlined. Examples and figures from all over the world are stated.
