British Ecological Society

The British Ecological Society is a scientific society for those interested in ecology. Ecology is the study of the distribution and abundance of organisms, the interaction between organisms, the interaction between organisms and their environment, and structure and function of ecosystems. Ecology is transboundary and so the Society works at regional, national and global scales. Ecology’s purpose is to provide knowledge about the way the world works and provide evidence on the interdependence between the natural world and people. A better understanding of ecological systems will allow society to predict the consequences of human activity on the environment. - See more at: http://www.britishecologicalsociety.org/about-us/bes-strategic-plan/#sthash.uIefcY3S.dpuf
