Planetary Boundaries for Biodiversity: Implausible Science, Pernicious Policies.

José M Montoya1, Ian Donohue2, Stuart L Pimm3.   

Abstract

The notion of a 'safe operating space for biodiversity' is vague and encourages harmful policies. Attempts to fix it strip it of all meaningful content. Ecology is rapidly gaining insights into the connections between biodiversity and ecosystem stability. We have no option but to understand ecological complexity and act accordingly.
