  2. If hitting #30x30 targets isn't enough, what will it take to protect our planet? The "protected" status means little when oil & gas concessions invade the #Amazon, the #Congo, & beyond. 🌍 We need true sanctuary for nature. #ClimateJustice #COP16 #AgeOfExtinction #ActNow #ClimateChange

  3. 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

  4. 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."

  5. 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."

  10. 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."
