The Anthropocene era has been marked by such significant human
pressure that it has led to the sixth mass extinction. The Baseline
Concept in Biodiversity Conservation interprets human domination of
the Earth as the process of gradual landscape change, the execution
of which is neither linear nor homogeneous. This book is structured
around three key questions: Where and when did everything go wrong?
How do we define baseline states for biodiversity conservation
strategies? How are reference states mobilized in a concrete way
through case studies? Today, biodiversity conservation faces a
dilemma that this book sheds light on: return to states less
modified by humans than today but in a world that has changed
significantly; or, let the nature of tomorrow express itself where
it still can but without a road map.
