"We call them Natura 2000 areas, and on paper they should contain the EU's most unique and vulnerable wild nature, where endangered insects and rare birds could frolic.

But in some of the areas there is no nature at all."

The message is clear: Our Protected Areas are buckling under human pressure. Nations must take serious steps—not only to expand Protected Areas but to bolster the protections we already have. #ConservationCall

From 2001-2020, global PAs saw 558,142 km² in forest loss—over 13% of the world’s total forest loss in that period. This is a huge warning signal. #forestloss #ProtectedAreas #EnvironmentCrisis

Conservation effectiveness varies by region. For instance, Indigenous-managed PAs in the Amazon Basin & Australia outperform others. Meanwhile, areas in southern Africa and SE Asia face heavy losses. #BiodiversityCrisis #ConservationEfforts

Protected Areas managed by Indigenous peoples & local communities are far more effective in limiting habitat loss. Their sustainable practices are a beacon of hope for conservation efforts. #IndigenousKnowledge #AmazonBasin #Conservation

The “Paper Parks” Phenomenon: In some regions, like Africa and South America, the establishment of Protected Areas has ironically led to MORE habitat loss. Quantity ≠ Quality in conservation. #PaperParks #Africa #SouthAmerica

Between 2003 and 2019, the main drivers of habitat loss in Protected Areas were deforestation (42%), cropland expansion (32%), built-up land (24%), and pastureland (2%). Deforestation impacted 53% of PAs! #habitatloss #deforestation #croplands

Europe’s unprotected areas see a jaw-dropping 21.67% habitat loss rate. This is putting enormous pressure on ecosystems across the continent. #biodiversity #ecosystems #environment

🔴 North America & Europe Hit Hard: Over 10% of habitat is lost in 33.8% of Europe’s Protected Areas and 31.4% of the U.S. Many European PAs face huge threats from forest loss and cropland expansion. #Europe #US #Environment

A study in Nature Communications - www.nature.com/articles/s41... - by researchers from Chinese and Australian institutions brings alarming findings: #conservation #NatureCommunications #habitatloss

Despite commitments to the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework—aiming to protect 30% of Earth by 2030—we’re struggling to safeguard what we already have. #BiodiversityCrisis #KunmingMontreal
