At least 30% of the world’s land and seas should be protected in the next decade to prevent the destruction of the planet’s biodiversity.
That is one of the proposals by the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) for a global framework to protect the Earth’s plant and wildlife.
The draft text published by the CBD on Monday outlines a 10-year strategy to halt the decline and extinction of species and allow ecosystems to recover by 2050.
