, 2021 Since the beginning of the 20th Century, a complex web of national, regional and international regulatory instruments has developed to handle environmental degradation, so that it can be further used by humans today or in the future, not because Nature deserves, per se, not to be destroyed.

Biodiversity and Geography [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2007 Abstract We combine a new economic geography model of agglomeration and dispersion of economic activity with an ecological–economic model of species diversity to examine optimal policies of biodiversity conservation in a two-region world. Species diversity is inevitably impaired by anthropogenic impact.

Return to 1616: Multispecies Fauna Reconstruction Requires Thinking Outside the Box
Animals, 2023 Conservation translocations have become increasingly popular for ‘rewilding’ areas that have lost their native fauna. These multispecies translocations are complex and need to consider the requirements of each individual species as well as the influence ...

In defence of biodiversity [PDF]
Biology & Philosophy, 2017 The concept of biodiversity has played a central role within conservation biology over the last thirty years. Precisely how it should be understood, however, is a matter of ongoing debate. In this paper we defend what we call a classic multidimensional conception of biodiversity.

How much biodiversity is concealed in the word “biodiversity”?
Current Biology, 2022 Amidst a global biodiversity crisis1, the word 'biodiversity' has become indispensable for conservation and management2. Yet, biodiversity is often used as a buzzword in scientific literature. Resonant titles of papers claiming to have studied 'global biodiversity' may be used to promote research focused on a few taxonomic groups, habitats, or facets ...
