Assessing how restoration can facilitate 30×30 goals for climate‐resilient coastal ecosystems in the United States

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract Ecosystems globally have reached critical tipping points because of climate change, urbanization, unsustainable resource consumption, and pollution. In response, international agreements have set targets for conserving 30% of global ecosystems and restoring 30% of degraded lands and waters by 2030 (30×30).
