Restoring
Biodiversity

The extent of natural habitats, and how much of them are turned into fully protected biodiversity reserves, is crucial for protecting wildlife. These are areas with very little human presence and almost no impact. Expanding such spaces plays a key role in safeguarding biodiversity and slowing its steady decline, which continues to be recorded year after year.

To review economic and behavioural models.

Larger and more vital habitats tend to experience less human interference, allowing them to thrive over time.

Europe has introduced the Nature Restoration Law, a measure aimed at restoring and conserving habitats across the continent. While this is not its stated purpose, it may lead to a reduction in agricultural and meat production within Europe. In turn, this could shift demand to other parts of the world, where meeting both domestic needs and global food demand often relies on deforestation.

An immediate goal

Reducing the direct loss and fragmentation of HABITATS can be achieved by linking remaining natural areas through ecological corridors. By restoring connectivity between ecosystems, these corridors help support a wide range of life, from mammals to microorganisms, allowing biodiversity to function and recover more effectively.

The long-term goal

As E.O. Wilson has suggested, the future of humanity depends on how we share the planet with other forms of life. This implies recognising limits to human population growth and to the expansion of land use into natural ecosystems. It also points towards setting aside around 50% of the planet for other species, while restoring ecological corridors that reconnect fragmented habitats and help biodiversity recover and function as a whole.
