Towards a taxonomically unbiased European Union biodiversity strategy for 2030 - Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences

Towards a taxonomically unbiased European Union biodiversity strategy for 2030 - Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences | Biodiversité | Scoop.it

Through the Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC) and the financial investments of the LIFE projects, Europe has become an experimental arena for biological conservation. With an estimated annual budget of €20 billion, the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 has set an ambitious goal of classifying 30% of its land and sea territory as Protected Areas and ensuring no deterioration in conservation trends and the status of protected species. We analysed LIFE projects focused on animals from 1992 to 2018 and found that investment in vertebrates was six times higher than that for invertebrates (€970 versus €150 million), with birds and mammals alone accounting for 72% of species and 75% of the total budget. In relative terms, investment per species towards vertebrates has been 468 times higher than that for invertebrates.

Nouvelle réunion de concertation pour le corridor écologique !

Nouvelle réunion de concertation pour le corridor écologique ! | Biodiversité | Scoop.it

En décembre 2019, la coordinatrice locale du Life BIODIV’OM du Parc Naturel de Martinique a rencontré Stéphane GOUYER, Directeur Général de l’Exploitation Agricole du Galion (EAG) et acteur concerné par le projet de corridor écologique. La rencontre entre les deux acteurs fut l’occasion de présenter le programme Life BIODIV’OM et les enjeux de préservation du Moqueur gorge blanche en Martinique mais également de recueillir des éléments de contexte sur l’activité agricole dans la commune de La Trinité spécifiquement sur les pratiques telles que la culture canne à sucre et l’élevage sur les parcelles concernées.
