What Is The Best Description Of Sustainable Land Management? | What Is A Sustainability Certification?
The ALCA created the Sustainable Land Management (SLM) certification program to award sustainable landscape management practices.
SLM ensures long term sustainability, ecosystem services and biodiversity. This is done through various practices & technologies that integrate the management of water, land & environmental resources that humans regularly need.
The goal of SLM is to preserve limited & natural resources such as water, soil & fuel while reducing waste generation & pollution. SLM practices support the natural growth and longevity of plants while simultaneously providing a well maintained and healthy landscape.
