与人类世相关的行星变化挑战了生物多样性保护中长期确立的观念和方法，例如荒野、荒野、本土和外来物种、物种和生态系统多样性，以及生物多样性保护的成功要素。本文回顾并分析了人类世在生物多样性保护文献中的应用情况。研究发现，新时代的理念已被用来构建广泛的新方法和概念，以理解和阻止生物多样性的丧失。这些新想法多种多样，有时甚至相互矛盾，包含一系列道德价值观和立场。然而，“人类世”一词在生物多样性保护文献中并未广泛使用。尽管人类世具有跨学科性质，但对这些新概念和新方法的跨学科研究却很少，人文学科的见解几乎完全不存在。关于人类世保护的争论是保护领域内长期争论的延续，例如它应该如何与人类发展联系起来，以及关于荒野的概念。总体而言，本次综述表明，人类世生物多样性保护的文献还不完善，既多样化又新颖，同时呼应了保护领域长期以来的争论，并指出了此类文献未来可能采取的方向
Planetary changes associated with the Anthropocene challenge long-established ideas and approaches within biodiversity conservation, such as wilderness, wildness, native and exotic species, species and ecosystem diversity, and what counts as success in biodiversity conservation. This article reviews and analyzes how the Anthropocene is being used within the literature on biodiversity conservation. It finds that the idea of a new epoch has been used to frame a broad range of new approaches and concepts to understanding and stemming the loss of biodiversity. These new ideas are diverse and sometimes contradictory, embracing a range of ethical values and positions. Yet the term Anthropocene is not widely used within the biodiversity conservation literature. Despite the cross-disciplinary nature of the Anthropocene, interdisciplinary research on these new concepts and approach is rare, and the insights of the humanities are almost entirely absent. Debates about conservation in the Anthropocene are a continuation of long-running controversies within conservation, such as how it should relate to human development, and over the concept of wilderness. Overall, this review demonstrates that the literature on biodiversity conservation in the Anthropocene is not well established, is both diverse and new, while echoing longstanding debates in conservation, and it indicates the direction such literature might take in future
