Governments Lag Behind UN 30 by 30 Biodiversity Conservation Targets for 2030
Research shows that governments are unlikely to meet the UN's 30 by 30 biodiversity target to protect 30% of land and marine areas by 2030. Currently, only 20% of land and 10% of marine areas are protected, with significant funding shortfalls, especially for marine conservation. Reports highlight a gap between formal protection and effective enforcement. An official progress report warns that none of the 23 goals under the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework will be met without accelerated collective action.
