Sure why not banning uni sports and culture. Can someone explain them the immense costs of even worse students' and staff's well-being and related health care. Pretty please.

What are challenges in the uptake of EO in conservation NGO/CSOs!?
- Longevity of EO approaches beyond projects
- Not capturing on the ground impact
- Lack of fit-for-purpose data
-No matching skill sets
- Not showing all land resources, not only biodiversity
- wall to wall data over time
- ...☁️

Today at #BIOSPACE25, Space for Nature: How EO can empower NGOs and Civil Society in conservation.
A crucial view on on-the-ground conservation action, and what we need to learn from one other.

"We need to clear output to give a choice to the voiceless species" says Grace Nangendo
wietekewillemen.bsky.social
And #Biospace25 continues. Learning more about the openEO platform openeo.cloud. Nice to nice #openscience practices going beyond data.

(And yes that is an old olive orchard turned into a parking outside..)

IPBES knowledge gaps are diverse and have changed over time. From data fragmentation challenges to gaps in inclusive sense-making. All IPBES policy statements have an indication showing the level of agreement and quality of the evidence. For the latter EO has esp. a role, says @niamir.bsky.social. 💡

"Data is abundant, but data without a mandate will not make change", says @gregoiredubois.bsky.social at #BIOSPACE25

And a kind reminder from Yana Gevorgyan from the GEO secretariat: observing the earth does not lead to action, observations need to be turned into 'intelligence' first.
wietekewillemen.bsky.social
The welcome talks are next level. Honest and clear reflections and views by international organizations. Many of them present in the room. @ipbes.net reminded the all of the ongoimg Monitoring Assessment and the role of EO in this. 🛰 🌍

"This is the first dedicated conference on EO and the many dimensions of biodiversity...more will follow" says ESA's Federica Marando. Sounds good!

Look at all these superpowers combined here at #BIOSPACE25 🦸🏽‍♀️ Quite impressive.
The welcome words are both grim and hopeful. Hoping to see even more bundling of these 🌱powers this week.
