К 2020 году темпы утраты всех естественных мест обитания, включая леса, как минимум сокращены наполовину и там, где осуществимо, приведены почти к нулю, а деградация и фрагментация существенно снижены.

К 2015 году сведены к минимуму многочисленные антропогенные нагрузки на коралловые рифы и другие уязвимые экосистемы, на которые воздействует изменение климата или подкисление океанов, в целях поддержания их целостности и функционирования.

К 2020 году предотвращено исчезновение известных угрожаемых видов, и статус их сохранности, и в частности видов, численность которых более всего сокращается, улучшен и поддерживается.

К 2020 году восстановлены и охраняются экосистемы, оказывающие важнейшие услуги, включая услуги, связанные с водой, и содействующие охране здоровья, жизнеобеспечению и благосостоянию, с учетом потребностей женщин, коренных и местных общин и бедных и уязвимых слоев населения.

К 2020 году повышена сопротивляемость экосистем и увеличен вклад биоразнообразия в накопление углерода благодаря сохранению и восстановлению природы, включая восстановление как минимум 15 процентов деградировавших экосистем, что способствует смягчению последствий изменения климата и адаптации к ним и борьбе с опустыниванием.
