fill in identities of targets (columns) & direct threats (rows) threat rating (total) for each target determined by a forumla of your choice [WWF uses 2*(scope + severity) + irreversibility]. Then color code each threat/target
rating: for example, different colors for very high, high, medium, low) and then, using a "formula" of your own design, determine the overall threat level for each threat to entire vision/site/combination of targets (explain
formula, give number & color code)

Project conceptual model:
The conceptual model was created through a systematic approach that started with identifying the main
goals of the landscape restoration project. These goals were then divided into specific direct factors,
contributing factors, and relevant strategies. Each element of the model was thoughtfully chosen for its
significance in achieving the project's objectives and its ability to promote positive change in the
landscape restoration process. In the model, YELLOW boxes indicate the project's objectives, LIGHT
BROWN boxes show the direct factors, PINK boxes represent the contributing factors, and GREEN boxes
outline the strategies used to address these factors.
