Biotska pestrost gozdov v novejših mednarodnih in domačih pravnih dokumentih

Članek obravnava naslednje mednarodne pravne akte in strate{ke dokumente s podro~ja biotske pestrosti: Konvencijo o biotski pestrosti, Konvencijo o varstvu Alp s Protokolom o gorskem gozdu, Agendo 21, Resolucije o varovanju gozdov v Evropi, Vseevropsko strategijo o biotski in krajinski pestrosti in njen delovni program, Strategijo EU o biotski pestrosti in Gozdarsko strategijo EU. Med doma~imi pravnimi akti ~lanek obravnava Zakon o varstvu okolja in Zakon o ohranjanju narave ter Zakon o gozdovih in Program razvoja gozdov v Sloveniji. Slovenska gozdarska zakonodaja in politika `e vsebujeta ve~ino mednarodno sprejetih na~el, priporo~il in zavez glede ohranjanja biotske pestrosti in trajnostne rabe njenih sestavin. Temeljne mednarodne zaveze, ki se {e ne uresni~ujejo, so naslednje: ugotavljanje in spremljanje biotske pestrosti gozdov z ocenjevanjem stanja na dr`avni ravni, ustanavljanjezavarovanih obmo~ij (naravnih parkov) ter zagotavljanje prora~unskih spodbud za uporabo okolju prijaznih tehnologij v gorskih obmo~jih, vklju~no z nekaterimi stro`jimi dolo~bami Protokola o gorskem gozdu.Slovenska gozdarska politika na podro~ju biotske pestrosti je okvirno usklajena z najnovej{imi strate{kimi usmeritvami EU, doma~a gozdarska zakonodaja in zakonodaja s podro~ja ohranjanja narave pa nista ustrezno usklajeni.The article deals with the following legal acts and strategic documents in thefield of biological diversity: the Agreement on Biological Diversity, the Agreement on the Protection of the Alps with the Protocol on Mountain Forest, the Rio Agenda 21, Resolutions on forest protection in Europe, the Pan-European Biological and Landscape Diversity Strategy with its Work Programand the EU Forestry Strategy. As to national legal acts the article deals with the Act on Environmental Protection, the Act on Nature Conservation, the Act on Forests and the Program of Forest Development in Slovenia. Slovenian forest legislation and policy have already accepted most of the internationally recognised principles, recommendations and obligations as to the conservation of biological diversity and sustainable use of its elements. The basic international obligations which have not been put into practice yet are: the establishing and monitoring of forest biological diversity and the elaboration of an estimate of the situation on a national level, the founding of protected areas (natural parks) and securing stimuli from the budget for the use of environment-friendly technologies in mountainous regions, including some of the (more strict ) provisions of the Protocol on Mountain Forest. Slovenian forestry policy in the field of biological diversity has roughly been harmonised with the recent strategic EU directives yet domestic forestry legislation and the legislation regulating nature conservation have not been co-ordinated yet
