11/ April 2026: The UN confirmed 10%+ of the world ocean is now under some level of protection. But only 3.3% is fully protected. To hit 30x30 by 2030, we need to protect an area the size of the Indian Ocean in 4 years. Progress is real. So is the math. 🗺️⏱️ #30x30 #MarineProtection #WorldOceanDay

A new study shows conservation actions are effective, but we need to protect 30% of land and sea by 2030. This is a big step to help nature.

We had a couple of interesting ecology and conservation seminars this week at #LincolnUniversityNZ. The first, on Monday, was by Lou Sanson, ex-Director General of the NZ Department of Conservation.
Lou is now involved in the 30x30 initiative to protect 30% of Earth's land area and 30% of its marine area. 30x30 is an international effort, driven by 122 of the world's countries, which have all signed up to be part of the High Ambition Coalition for Nature and People.
Lou gave a tour of some of the amazing projects happening around the world to protect the planet's wild places, as part of 30x30.
Is New Zealand part of this? No, of course not. We'd need a change of government for NZ to show leadership on conservation and environmental issues.
We do already have 30% of our land in reserves. Almost all of that is in the highest and wettest parts of the country, where English settlers couldn't farm. NZ hasn’t made a national park or a world heritage area in 25 years, and many of our reserves are struggling under pressure from pests and weeds. We have only 2% of our oceans protected.
We can do a lot better. As Lou concluded, “We’re seen as a world leader but we're not acting as a world leader at the moment.”

🌱 Protecting land alone isn't enough. 🌱
The #30x30 target set in 2022 is essential, but evidence shows “protected” areas often lack the resources and enforcement needed to curb biodiversity loss. Conservation needs more than just boundaries—it needs enforcement. #ConservationChallenges https://buff.ly/3UKmmYL -

Top scientists call on Australian Government to allocate federal funding towards nature protection and management
"Australia is facing a nature crisis. We are the only developed country on the global list of deforestation hotspots, with 40% of our forests destroyed since European settlement.[ 19 Australian ecosystems are showing signs of collapse. And we are facing one of the highest species extinction rates in the world, with the overall state of our environment on a consistent downward trend."
"The continued degradation of nature will have significant consequences and economic impact on industries such as tourism, food production and agriculture. At least 49% of Australia’s GDP is dependent on healthy nature...We just need the political will. "

New Inuvialuit-led conservation area in the Yukon will safeguard wildlife, habitat, and Inuvialuit traditional use
The Agreement ensures the conservation and protection of almost 8,500 km² of the Eastern Yukon North Slope called Aullaviat/Anguniarvik
The area is larger than Banff National Park and is an important contribution toward Canada’s goal of conserving 30 percent of lands and waters in Canada by 2030

British Columbia misses the mark with old growth update, critics claim
The province has secured logging deferrals in less than half of the 2.6 million hectares of the most at-risk old-growth areas sheltering the biggest, oldest trees, or the rarest or most ecologically important habitat prioritized by the technical advisory panel (TAP) in 2021

Die Beschlüsse der #Biodiversität #COP15 in #Montreal gibt es erst seit einem Jahr. Sehr wichtige Sache:

Bei den Pariser Klimaschutzzielen von 2015 hat es auch erst einige Jahre gedauert, dass nach den Beschlüssen auch Taten folgten. Z.B. in den USA der #InflationReductionAct oder in der EU #GreenDeal bzw. #FitFor55

Private landholders control 60% of the Australian continent.
Many of Australia’s ecosystems are severely degraded.
Only 22% of Australia’s landmass is currently protected."About 60% of the continent is owned or managed privately – and 70% to 90% of inadequately protected wildlife is found mostly on such land, which includes farms, pastoral leases and mines."
"Through what legal mechanism can private landholders be engaged in biodiversity conservation? A conservation covenant is a legally binding commitment landholders make to restrict how their property is used."
"Existing covenants are generally used to protect high-value conservation land where ecosystems are healthy. Rarely are they used on degraded land needing restoration, such as overgrazed paddocks or former mining."

Fix Australia’s broken environmental laws to stop the rapid loss of nature
"Labor warned to clamp down on biodiversity offsets in environment law overhaul."
"The Australian government should significantly constrain the use of biodiversity offsets under its environmental law reform agenda and stop them being used for critically endangered wildlife, according to a report by a partnership of 11 universities."
"It recommended that offsets focused on restoring and creating new habitat and so-called “averted loss” offsets – which involve protecting existing habitat – be abolished."
“We know that the existing system has relied heavily on biodiversity offsets, and that this has failed to stem the destruction of nature in Australia."

Converting public forests into national parks...
We need "to stave off the extinction crisis and stop the biodiversity freefall. To do that means protecting adequate samples of all of Australia’s unique species and ecosystems....We’ve committed to protect 30% of Australia’s land by 2030. Here’s how we could actually do it."
"In the 1990s and 2000s, Australia’s Regional Forest Agreements were dogged by controversy. But in retrospect, these logging-conservation deals led to significant gains in converting public forests into national parks."
"As Victoria and Western Australia announce an end to native forest logging, we should explore the areas previously set aside for logging with an eye to protection based on ecosystem, carbon and water values. First Nations communities have rightly asked to be involved in what happens next."

The State of the World’s Plants and Fungi
"A lot of conservation work has been based on cute animals. We really want to bring plants to the table."What are the biggest threats to biodiversity?
"First, it’s land use change; mainly for agriculture, but also for urban development, roads and mining. Second, it’s the direct exploitation of species, such as timber felling and the illegal trade in threatened species. The third is climate change. We still don’t really know what temperatures plants will be able to tolerate, and it’s not only the slowly increasing mean temperatures, but the extremes – it’s about drought, extreme heatwaves and how the whole climate system is being disrupted – and many species are very sensitive to that. In addition, we have invasive species. We also have pollution. All those factors can interact and combine.""We know exactly what we need to do, based on the science. It’s quite simple really, because it’s about
protecting what we’ve got,
restoring what we’ve degraded.It’s about more sustainable production, and also reducing consumption overall. It’s about fighting climate change, invasive species and new diseases."
