  3 Ecosystem approach acrossthe GBF GOAL A: The integrity, connectivity and resilience of all ecosystems are maintained, enhanced, or restored, substantially increasing the area of natural ecosystems by 2050. GOAL B: maintain and enhance nature’s contributions to people. Multiple targets address ecosystems, especially Target 1, Target 2 (restoration), Target 3 (30x30) Ecosystem-related headline indicators make a set – A.1 Red List of Ecosystems – A.2 Extent of natural ecosystems – B.1 Services provided by ecosystems – T2.1 Area under restoration – T3.1 Coverage of protected areas and OECMs …If reported consistently across indicators and countries: Global Ecosystem Typology
