Ecological station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
According to the National System of Conservation Units (SNUC) in Brazil an ecological station is an area set up for environmental protection [1].
The stations have been active in the country particularly as a result of the widespread threats to biodiversity and forest caused by Deforestation in Brazil. In coordination with environmental groups, the Brazilian government has established an increased number of protective stations in areas under serious threat in an effort to curb rapid deforestion and protest its ecosytems in the country.
