Abstract
Both ecologists and planners are involved in management of the environment although they operate at rather different levels. Environmental management is also carried out by a range of other disciplines including agriculture, forestry, water resource management, pollution control etc. However, since ecology is the science concerned with the functioning of organisms and their relationship with the environment, and planning provides the central, coordinating decision-making framework, they are both of central importance in environmental management.
