Increase in protection of priority biodiversity areas

Explore the potential of trading mechanisms to enhance the protection of priority biodiversity areas in Brazil and globally. Learn about the cost-saving benefits and improved biodiversity outcomes of trading domains within microbasins and biomes. Evaluate the current implementation status in Brazil, including the RL enforcement programs in Mato Grosso and Parana. Consider the generalizability of systems like FEMA for environmental licensing and control credits. Can tradeable obligations effectively replace strict regulations on forest clearance for greater conservation impact?

Presentation Transcript

  1. Increase in protection of priority biodiversity areas

  2. Bottom line • Trading has the potential to substantially reduce costs of achieving aggregate conservation objective • Bigger trading domains reduce compliance cost, improve biodiversity protection • But is it implementable?

  3. RL enforcement and trading in Brazil: current situation • Trading allowed by Provisional Law 2166 (preferably within microbasin, basin possibly; also compensate by purchasing gazetted for parks) • SISLEG, Parana: early stages of implementation • Mato Grosso: Innovative RL enforcement program

  4. Trading Domains in Parana: Biome-Basin combination

  5. FEMA (Mato Grosso) System of Environmental Licensing and Control Credit: FEMA

  6. Generalizability? • Within Brazil • Outside Brazil: introduce tradeable obligations as a substitute for existing strict regulations on forest clearance?

  7. End of presentation
