The countries of the world made a plan to save nature by conserving 30% of their area.
For Climate Lab, I looked at the database the UN uses to track progress on the goal. Lots areas are small, contorted and narrow. Can we save nature with crazy shapes?

Oddly shaped preserves have more edges where nature and humans collide. A recent analysis found a third of all the world’s protected land is within 2km of its borders.
All of the land at this protected area in New York is within a half mile of its edge.
