The commitment to protect 30% of the Earth’s terrestrial, inland water, coastal and marine areas by 2030 under the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework has seen growing attention paid to ‘other effective area-based conservation measures’ (OECMs) to help achieve this target. However, there are a number of misconceptions of OECMs that commonly arise. We explore these misconceptions to aid in ensuring that OECMs are employed to meet their full potential.
《昆明-蒙特利尔全球生物多样性框架》提出到2030年保护地球30%的陆地、内陆水域、沿海和海洋区域的目标,这使得人们越来越关注“其他基于区域的有效保护措施”(OECMs),以帮助实现这一目标。然而,人们对OECMs普遍存在一些误解。我们探讨这些误解,以确保OECMs能够充分发挥其潜力。
