Nexus report by #IPBES is out and making the news

“governments are underestimating or ignoring the links between five key areas - biodiversity, water, food, health and climate change.”

This "siloed" approach has unintended consequences…

IPBES report sees climate, nature and food challenges interlinked

A new approach is needed to tackle the interlinked crises afflicting the planet, scientists warn.

Kerry Smith (Kerry Stewart) is ridiculously good! 🔥

Roli Roberts @roliroberts.bsky.social · Dec 13

Really good talk from Kerry Smith at #BES2024: functional diversity likely more important than species diversity, so she proposes an orthogonal "functional uniqueness" axis for the #RedList (using a suite of morphological traits for birds and looking for outliers in trait space).

Important piece by Gittleman - “It’s impossible to separate human health from health of the natural world. Ecology is the unifying science that integrates knowledge..[the] One Health approach is unlimited, exciting, & necessary for the health of life on our planet” www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... 🧪🌎🌐🌾

Photo of the front page of the paper - showing animals and plants and people encircled across the globe - There needs to be more emphasis on the ecological component of One Health as we consider the problems of biodiversity loss, climate extremes, habitat fragmentation, and emerging disease.
