Hugh P. Possingham Landscape-scale conservation planning is coming
of age. In the last couple of decades, conservation practitioners,
working at all levels of governance and all spatial scales, have
embraced the CARE principles of conservation planning -
Comprehensiveness, Adequacy, Representativeness, and Efficiency.
Hundreds of papers have been written on this theme, and several
different kinds of software program have been developed and used
around the world, making conservation planning based on these
principles global in its reach and influence. Does this mean that
all the science of conservation planning is over - that the
discovery phase has been replaced by an engineering phase as we
move from defining the rules to implementing them in the landscape?
This book and the continuing growth in the literature suggest that
the answer to this question is most definitely 'no. ' All of
applied conservation can be wrapped up into a single sentence: what
should be done (the action), in what place, at what time, using
what mechanism, and for what outcome (the objective). It all seems
pretty simple - what, where, when, how and why. However stating a
problem does not mean it is easy to solve.
