California Biodiversity Council: Initiatives

“In 2021, the Council, in recognition of the federal and state commitment to 30x30, agreed to work together to advance this common goal. As a first step, Council agencies have developed an appendix report and supplemental database to identify opportunities for collaborative action and investments that can help achieve 30x30. The following is a compendium of over 70 different federal, state, and local programs that are best poised to support 30x30 in California. This includes programs that increase the amount of durably conserved lands and coastal waters through changes in ownership or levels of protection and management, as well as programs that support conservation through interagency coordination, regional planning, research, restoration, or adaptive management."
