Successfully meeting this goal for expansion of PA’s to 30 percent of the Earth’s surface would dispossess and displace roughly 300 million people, according to a recent report.121 Reaching the goal of setting aside half the planet as Protected Areas, as renowned scientists such as E.O. Wilson have proposed, would directly affected over one billion people.122 Such shocking estimates of the potential impact of conservation policies are important since, as Mark Dowie notes, hardly any national governments or international agencies keep records of the number of people displaced by the expansion of land dedicated to conservation. In an indicative case, however, Dowie mentions that when the African nation of Chad expanded the amount of land under protection from 0.1 to 9.1 percent in the 1990s, an estimated six hundred thousand people were turned into refugees.
