The construction and management of natural heritage protection sites lack standardized and stable sources of funds. Many nature reserves and scenic spots located in the poor areas of the old and the young have not been allocated financial funds for a long time, which leads to a serious shortage of management and protection funds, which greatly affects the normal protection, planning and management of natural heritage resources.
In addition to insufficient investment in protection funds, insufficient protection of local residents' rights and interests is another major problem in the protection of natural heritage in China. It is necessary to legislate for the protection of residents' rights and interests and make it clear. The legislative process of natural heritage protection should be accelerated.
