    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[In the interest of being proactive, Kennisis Lake Cottage Owners Association, looks to preserve and maximize the sustainability of their interaction with the lake, its natural resources, and its place in the watershed system. The research in this project shows examples of government legislation and stewardship initiatives with regards to tree-cutting and preservation on privately-owned waterfront property in North America. This report is categorized into tree-cutting bylaws, native tree stewardship initiatives, examples of incentives, examples of successful partnerships and initiatives, and a study of best practices for stakeholder education and participation with regards to upland and riparian trees. Possible legislative and stewardship goals are recommended for Kennisis Lake to the Association, for contractors and realtors, and for the municipality.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The focus of this paper will be limited to instrumental value considerations of how humans value trees. Despite the fact that pro-environment attitudes have been growing for decades and public awareness of the impact of human actions continues to increase, we remain a consumptive global culture dependent on excessive accumulation of material goods. There is a failure and reluctance to acknowledge values other than economic ones, a condition fostered by those in power while those who demand that these values have social importance have a lesser-heard voice. Trees are an important component and a reliable indicator of a healthy environment and given the vast open spaces allocated for parks in cities and increasing utilization of more sustainable forest management practices, the values we attribute to trees are increasingly acknowledged.]]></dcterms:abstract>
