Abstract

Climate change has been predicted to place more pressure on biological variety throughout the planet. The movement of species and ecosystems, even across international borders, necessitates international collaboration between governments. However, existing international conservation laws do not consider climate change and are thus not expected to provide sufficient support for species and ecosystem adaptation. This research delves into the difficulty of making international nature conservation legislation resilient to climate change and the corresponding mismatch.
