Attempts to reduce conflict between development and conservation are increasingly reliant upon environmental offsetting: generating an environmental benefit to compensate for environmental damage elsewhere. However, whether different offset approaches can achieve their goal of ‘no net loss’ of biodiversity is unknown. By building simulations of the long-term biodiversity consequences (both intended and unintended) of current offset approaches, This project aims to test how each approach and associated sources of uncertainty influence the long-term persistence of biodiversity. It will identify limitations of biodiversity offsetting, shed new light on the most effective approaches, and help develop global standards for offsetting biodiversity loss.

减少发展和保护之间冲突的努力越来越依赖于环境补偿：产生环境效益来补偿其他地方的环境破坏。然而，不同的抵消方法是否可以实现其生物多样性“无净损失”的目标是未知的。本项目旨在通过模拟当前抵消方法的长期生物多样性后果（包括有意和无意），测试每种方法和相关的不确定性来源如何影响生物多样性的长期持续性。它将确定生物多样性抵消的局限性，揭示最有效的方法，并帮助制定抵消生物多样性损失的全球标准。
