Biodiversity is essential to our very existence, supporting our water and food supplies, our health and the stability of the climate. It was a pleasure to present the outcome of the @ipbes.net #Nexus Assessment to the Veolia Institute this past Saturday. Thank you @Dinah Louda for this invitation.

Transformative change for a just and sustainable world is possible. The PLOS Biology paper I co-authored with the co-chairs of the @ipbes.net Transformative Change Assessment Karen O'Brien, Lucas Garibaldi and Arun Agrawal explores how to make it happen.

IF you speak French, don't miss the comic strip on the biodiversity crisis by Mathieu Ughetti and @franckcourchamp.bsky.social. It is scientifically accurate and SO MUCH fun! Episode 7 focuses on the links between biodiversity and human heath.

#BiodiversityDay reminds us how much humanity depends on biodiversity.

From food and clean air, to water, medicines and climate regulation - biodiversity connects us all and sustains our very foundation of life.

We must all recommit to putting healthy nature at the heart of development 🌍
