农业在地球上占主导地位。然而,它有许多不可持续的环境成本,特别是在全球粮食需求上升的情况下。在这里,我们评估了世界不同地区成功解决农业和野生自然之间冲突的方式。我们设想,需要采取协调一致的全球行动,保护对农业活动最敏感的土地,并制定将农业环境成本内在化的政策,以实现更可持续的未来。农业在地球上占主导地位,但也有许多环境成本,这些成本将随着全球粮食需求而增加。这篇文章概述了一个更可持续的未来的愿景。
Agriculture dominates the planet. Yet it has many environmental costs that are unsustainable, especially as global food demand rises. Here, we evaluate ways in which different parts of the world are succeeding in their attempts to resolve conflict between agriculture and wild nature. We envision that coordinated global action in conserving land most sensitive to agricultural activities and policies that internalise the environmental costs of agriculture are needed to deliver a more sustainable future. Agriculture dominates the planet but has many environmental costs that will escalate with global food demand. This Essay outlines a vision for a more sustainable future.
