Nature positive is a concept that aims to halt and reverse nature loss by a specific date, typically set for 2030. It emphasizes the need to not only conserve existing nature but also actively restore what has been degraded. Here's a breakdown of the concept:
- Goal: To achieve a net gain in biodiversity and a healthier planet by 2030 (compared to a 2020 baseline).
- Focus: It goes beyond just protecting nature; it aims to actively improve and restore ecosystems.
- Benefits: A nature-positive approach benefits both the environment and society. It helps mitigate climate change, provides cleaner air and water, and supports healthy ecosystems that are essential for human well-being.
Here are some key aspects of nature positive:
- Protection: Conserving existing natural areas like forests, wetlands, and wildlife habitats.
- Restoration: Actively restoring degraded ecosystems by planting trees, removing invasive species, and reintroducing native wildlife.
- Sustainable practices: Promoting practices that minimize negative impacts on nature, such as sustainable agriculture and responsible resource management.
Nature positive is a global initiative with growing momentum. Many countries, businesses, and organizations are setting nature-positive goals and implementing strategies to achieve them.
