Restoration

This book argues that existing practises of plant conservation are inadequate and firmly supports the placement of ecological restoration at the cornerstone of biodiversity conservation. The author unifies different aspects of conservation into one coherent concept, including natural area protection, ex situ conservation and in situ interventions through either population management or ecological restoration.

North-East Badia, Jordan, is inhabited by half a million Syrian refugees and an equal number of Jordanians, whose livelihoods depend on agriculture. Working in the agricultural sector is characterized by low wages, long hours, poor working conditions, lack of occupational health and safety, and a high incidence of child labour. In addition, Jordan faces severe water scarcity, with annual demand roughly double the available supply and weak water resource management exacerbating the problem.

Coastal blue carbon ecosystems, including mangroves, seagrasses and target_idal marshes, are some of the most carbon-rich ecosystems on Earth, and are vital to mitigating the impacts of climate change. They are also critical for coastal biodiversity, food security, livelihoods and human well-being, in addition to climate adaptation – protecting millions of people globally from the impacts of storms, coastal flooding and erosion.

This guide provides information and reasoning as to why it is important for agribusinesses to engage in nature-positive business practices, and why landscape restoration is an effective solution to issues related to degradation of landscapes and natural capital on which agribusinesses depend.

Ecosystem restoration has been recognized as an effective means of mitigating climate change, reversing biodiversity and soil loss at the same time. The Restoration Barometer, originally created to allow countries to report their progress under the Bonn Challenge, provides a tool that adapts to the availability of information and diverse restoration approaches implemented around the world. This report presents Costa Rica’s progress in this area.

La restauración de ecosistemas ha sido reconocida como un medio efectivo para mitigar al cambio climático, revertir la perdida de  biodiversidad y de suelo al mismo tiempo. El barómetro de la restauración, originalmente creado para permitir a los países reportar sus avances en el marco del Desafío de Bonn, provee una herramienta que se adapta a la disponibilidad de información y diversos enfoques  de restauración implementado a lo largo y ancho del mundo.

Les récentes initiatives mondiales en matière de restauration d’écosystèmes offrent une opportunité sans précédent d’améliorer la conservation de la biodiversité ainsi que la santé et le bien-être humains. Les écosystèmes constituent une composante essentielle de la biodiversité.

Las recientes iniciativas mundiales de restauración de ecosistemas ofrecen una oportunidad sin precedentes para mejorar la conservación de la biodiversidad y la salud y el bienestar humanos. de la biodiversidad. Proporcionan a los seres humanos múltiples beneficios: un clima estable y un aire respirable; agua, alimentos y materiales; y protección contra desastres y enfermedades.

This report presents the results of applying the Restoration Barometer in Mexico, considering the particularities of the national context, data availability and the methodological guidelines provided by the Barometer guide for governments. This publication aims to make known the actions and impacts associated with the advances of the United Mexican States towards the restoration commitments acquired within the framework of the Bonn Challenge.

Este informe presenta los resultados de la aplicación del Barómetro de la Restauración en México, considerando las particularidades del contexto nacional, la disponibilidad de información y las pautas metodológicas que provee la guía del Barómetro para los gobiernos.
