At the same time 75% of Earth&#8217;s land surface has been significantly altered and 66% of the oceans have seen cumulative impact. Conserving the diversity of species on earth is vital to the future of all life on earth. Firstly because these species have an intrinsic value as beautiful sentient beings from which we can learn so much. Secondly, because these species are all closely connected in the web of life, of which humans are also part. Their diversity creates resilient ecosystems, which are critical for food and water security, and for addressing the climate crisis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A guide to restore and preserve species<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p>The Global Species Action Plan (GSAP) is a guide to the actions needed to conserve animals, fungi and plants, for example through including species data in spatial planning, and allowing animals to migrate through wildlife corridors. It also highlights the importance of regenerative agriculture, aquaculture and forestry, as well as the need to minimise the impact of climate change through mitigation and adaptation. &nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p>The plan will guide countries through the key interventions and actions needed to achieve the Global Biodiversity Framework, agreed at the 2022 UN Biodiversity Conference (COP15) in Montreal. It sets out a framework for actors from governments, businesses, non-governmental organisations, academic institutions, Indigenous and local communities to take action to achieve the targets, based on national capacity and circumstances.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p>The GSAP is closely tied to the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework goals and targets, providing a species rationale and species-relevant actions for each of the 23 global targets.
