Globalization and Biodiversity Conservation Problems: Polycentric REDD+ Solutions

Abstract: Protected areas are considered the cornerstone of biodiversity conservation, but face multiple problems in delivering this core objective. The growing trend of framing biodiversity and protected area values in terms of ecosystem services and human well-being may not always lead to biodiversity conservation. Although globalization is often spoken about in terms of its adverse effects to the environment and biodiversity, it also heralds unprecedented and previously inaccessible opportunities linked to ecosystem … Show more

“…A unique global mechanism for biodiversity conservation based on climate change mitigation is proposed by Githiru and Njambuya [62]. They suggest that REDD+, the United Nations climate change mitigation scheme whose goal is to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation in developing countries, can be harnessed for biodiversity conservation.…”

“…Globalization and externalization of cost are major drivers of biodiversity declines (Weinzettel et al 2018) [64] as acknowledged by Cunningham and Beazley [41] and by Githiru and Njambuya [62]. There are growing trends and tensions in framing conservation policy in terms of ecosystem services rather than biodiversity (Cimon-Morin et al 2013 [3]; Kusmanoff et al 2017 [65]) with implications across boundaries at local to global scales.…”

“…Globally, climate change, invasive species, deforestation, overexploitation of natural resources, and pollution, among other human activities, are causing the most serious biodiversity crisis since the extinction of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago [10,11]. This is no different in Ecuador, where, along with cattle ranching, oil extraction and mining are currently the greatest threats to biodiversity [12,13]. The magnitude of the problem is such that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change indicates that, of the species studied, around 50% have already been affected by climate change.…”
