Usage Guidance
-
This metric is intended to capture the global conservation status of a species in accordance with the IUCN Red List (https://www.iucn.org/resources/conservation-tools/iucn-red-list-threatened-species#RL_categories). Organizations should refer to the IUCN Red List Index to report on the conservation status of specific identified species.
-
In applying this metric, organizations should begin by understanding which species' habitats are on land assessed by the organization. As a result, this metric is often used in conjunction with Species Area of Habitat (PD2584).
