The regulation of ecosystems involves the ways in which living organisms and abiotic factors moderate the ambient environment, affecting human health, safety, and comfort. These regulating services include pollination, decomposition, water purification, erosion control, flood prevention, carbon storage, and climate regulation1. Additionally, the EU Nature Restoration Law aims to restore ecosystems across Europe, with binding targets for specific habitats and species. By 2030, it aims to cover at least 20% of the EU’s land and sea areas, ultimately restoring all ecosystems in need by 2050.
