anything that is limited, bounded, or has a definite end

science studies how well those things bounce back from stress.

what happens when we take more from a finite resource than its resilient nature can replace, causing the whole system to collapse.

is the study of how to protect and restore the biosphere by managing finite resources to keep nature resilient.

A limitation or restriction that tells you what you can't do, like a lack of funding or a physical boundary.

A standard or rule used to judge if something is successful or high-quality

The maximum number of individuals an environment can support before its finite resources run out.

When two things happen together, but one doesn't necessarily make the other happen.

When one event directly results in another happening (cause and effect).

The study or appreciation of beauty, often used in conservation to value nature's appearance alongside its function.

Refers to anything related to water, like the fish and plants living in the ocean or rivers.

To trap or store something away, like when trees pull carbon out of the air and hold it in their wood.

: Doing something forever or for an unknown, long amount of time without stopping.

When an organism produces and releases a substance, like a coral polyp making calcium to build a reef.

To thin out a substance by adding water or air, making it less concentrated and weaker.
