Integration of ecological-biological thresholds in conservation decision making.

摘要: In the Anthropocene, coupled human and natural systems dominate only a few remain relatively unaffected by influence. On one hand, conservation criteria based on areas of minimal impact are not relevant to much biosphere. other economic factors problematic with respect their ability arrive at operational indicators well-being that can be applied in practice over multiple generations. Coupled subject development which, under current management structures, tends affect cross planetary boundaries. Hence, designing applying applicable real-world where need interact sustainably coexist is essential. By recognizing criticality satisfying basic needs as well great uncertainty preferences future generations, we sought incorporate into evaluation. These require environmental conditions such opportunity for intergenerational welfare optimization maintained. Toward this end, propose integration ecological-biological thresholds decision making use an example planetary-boundaries approach. Both scientists economists must involved defining incorporated thinking reflect objectives conservation, sustainability, optimization.
