SummaryThe United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development sets a framework of universal Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to address challenges to society and the planet. Island invasive species eradications have well-documented benefits that clearly align with biodiversity conservation-related SDGs, yet the value of this conservation action for socioeconomic benefits is less clear. We examine the potential for island invasive vertebrate eradications to have ecological and socioeconomic benefits. Specifically, we examine: (1) how SDGs may have been achieved through past eradications; and (2) how planned future eradications align with SDGs and associated targets. We found invasive vertebrate eradication to align with 13 SDGs and 42 associated targets encompassing marine and terrestrial biodiversity conservation, promotion of local and global partnerships, economic development, climate change mitigation, human health and sanitation and sustainable production and consumption. Past eradications on 794 islands aligned with a median of 17 targets (range 13–38) by island. Potential future eradications on 292 highly biodiverse islands could align with a median of 25 SDG targets (range 15–39) by island. This analysis enables the global community to explicitly describe the contributions that invasive vertebrate management on islands can make towards implementing the global sustainable development agenda.

将岛屿上的入侵脊椎动物根除作为实施全球可持续发展目标的工具

摘要联合国 2030 年可持续发展议程确立了一个普遍的可持续发展目标 (SDG) 框架，以应对社会和地球面临的挑战。根除岛屿入侵物种具有明显符合与生物多样性保护相关的可持续发展目标的明确记录的好处，但这种保护行动对社会经济效益的价值尚不清楚。我们研究了根除岛屿入侵脊椎动物具有生态和社会经济效益的潜力。具体而言，我们研究：（1）如何通过过去的根除实现可持续发展目标；(2) 计划中的未来根除如何与可持续发展目标和相关目标保持一致。我们发现根除入侵性脊椎动物符合 13 个可持续发展目标和 42 个相关目标，包括海洋和陆地生物多样性保护，促进地方和全球伙伴关系、经济发展、减缓气候变化、人类健康和卫生以及可持续生产和消费。过去在 794 个岛屿上的根除行动与每个岛屿的 17 个目标（范围 13-38）的中位数一致。未来对 292 个高度生物多样性岛屿的根除可能与岛屿中 25 个可持续发展目标目标（范围 15-39）的中位数一致。该分析使全球社会能够明确描述岛屿上的侵入性脊椎动物管理可以为实施全球可持续发展议程做出的贡献。未来对 292 个高度生物多样性岛屿的根除可能与岛屿中 25 个可持续发展目标目标（范围 15-39）的中位数一致。该分析使全球社会能够明确描述岛屿上的侵入性脊椎动物管理可以为实施全球可持续发展议程做出的贡献。未来对 292 个高度生物多样性岛屿的根除可能与岛屿中 25 个可持续发展目标目标（范围 15-39）的中位数一致。该分析使全球社会能够明确描述岛屿上的侵入性脊椎动物管理可以为实施全球可持续发展议程做出的贡献。
