EU failing 2020 commitments for marine biodiversity protection - WWF

EU failing 2020 commitments for marine biodiversity protection - WWF | Biodiversité | Scoop.it

A new report from WWF and Sky Ocean Rescue shows European seas remain in a poor state and significantly lack appropriate biodiversity protection, with 19 of 23 marine EU Member States falling behind on developing management plans for their Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). The finding comes just a year before the 2020 deadline of international agreements to effectively protect 10% of the ocean (Convention on Biological Diversity Aichi target 11 and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 14).

DocBiodiv's insight:

A retenir : " The report finds that only 1.8% of the EU marine area is covered by MPAs with management plans, despite 12.4% being designated for protection. "
