Biodiversity conservation

Outras medidas eficazes de conservação baseadas em áreas (OECMs) são locais fora de áreas protegidas que proporcionam conservação in situ eficaz e de longo prazo da biodiversidade. A conservação pode ser o objetivo principal ou secundário de um local que é gerido para outros fins, ou pode ser uma consequência acidental da forma como o local é gerido.

Tindakan konservasi berbasis area yang efektif lainnya (OECM) adalah tapak di luar kawasan perlindungan yang memberikan pelestarian keanekaragaman hayati secara in situ yang efektif dan jangka panjang.

Les autres mesures de conservation efficaces par zone (AMCEZ) concernent les sites situés en dehors des aires protégées qui assurent une conservation in situ efficace et à long terme de la biodiversité. La conservation peut être l’objectif principal du site, un objectif secondaire d’un site géré à d’autres fins, ou encore une conséquence involontaire de la manière dont le site est géré.

The Global Species Action Plan (GSAP) is a critical initiative developed to support the implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), to address the increasing biodiversity loss worldwide. The GSAP outlines strategic interventions and actions to conserve and sustainably manage species while ensuring equitable benefits.

Nature (covering the water, biodiversity, soil/land, and air/climate realms) continues to decline with significant negative impacts on society. Businesses need to understand their impacts and  dependencies on nature, manage their nature-related risks and embed the value of nature into their decision making to identify and implement opportunities that contribute towards the nature-positive global goal.

Other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) are sites outside protected areas that deliver effective and long-term in situ conservation of biodiversity. Biodiversity conservation may be the primary objective of the site, a secondary objective of a site that is managed for other purposes, or it may be an unintended consequence of the way the site is managed.

Com base no volume de rejeitos lançados e na extensão das áreas atingidas, o rompimento da Barragem de Fundão, em Mariana, Minas Gerais, foi o maior desastre ambiental de todos os tempos na mineração brasileira, e um dos mais graves do mundo. Ao serem transportados a jusante da barragem rompida, os rejeitos foram se acumulando ao longo dos rios e alcançaram o estuário do Rio Doce, na ecorregião marinha do Leste brasileiro, afetando importantes ecossistemas.

Based on the volume of tailings releases and the distance they travelled, the Fundão Dam failure in southeast Brazil (Mariana, Minas Gerais state) was the largest ever environmental disaster in Brazil’s mining industry, and one of the world’s most serious. As they dispersed downriver, the tailings accumulated along the riverbanks and reached the Rio Doce estuary in the Eastern Brazilian Marine Ecoregion.
