Summary
Effective economic and legal mechanisms for protecting unique natural heritage sites, such as land acquisition by the state and inclusion in the List of World Heritage in Danger, have been identified through a study of Everglades National Park. The research highlights how these strategies can be applied to address threats facing Lake Baikal's ecosystem, particularly from proposed hydraulic structures on the transboundary Selenga River. By analyzing foreign scientific literature and legal documents, the study underscores the critical role of the World Heritage Committee in preserving vulnerable sites like the Everglades, which has twice been listed as endangered due to internal political processes in the United States. The findings offer potential solutions for global heritage conservation challenges.
