| dc.description | Preserving biodiversity and counteracting the spread of invasive plant species are important conditions for ensuring the ecological safety of landscapes, especially in the context of growing anthropogenic pressure and climate change. Invasive plant species pose a serious threat to natural ecosystems as they displace native flora, disrupt the natural balance, and cause habitat degradation. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature, biological invasions are the second most significant cause of biodiversity loss worldwide. In the Ukrainian context, the problem of combating invasive flora remains insufficiently regulated at the legislative level, which reduces the effectiveness of environmental policy (Hulme et al., 2022). At the same time, harmonizing national environmental legislation with European approaches, in particular the requirements of the European Strategy on Invasive Alien Species (Regulation (EU) No. 1143/2014, 2014), opens up new opportunities for creating an effective system to manage this challenge | |
| dc.description.abstract | The paper examines legislative mechanisms for biodiversity conservation and combating invasive flora as key instruments for ensuring the ecological safety of landscapes. Emphasis is placed on the need to improve the regulatory framework in the field of environmental protection, taking into account current environmental challenges. It analyzes existing national and international legal acts that regulate biodiversity conservation, as well as the specifics of the legal regime for managing invasive plant species. Particular attention is paid to the harmonization of Ukrainian legislation with European environmental standards. The novelty of the study lies in identifying gaps in current legislation and justifying the need to integrate a comprehensive approach to regulating activities related to introduced species. Recommendations are made for improving the legal framework for monitoring, control, and accountability for the spread of invasive plants. The work emphasizes the importance of interagency cooperation and environmental education as components of effective implementation of environmental protection policy. Keywords: biodiversity, invasive flora, ecological safety, legal regulation, landscape ecology, nature conservation. | |
