#DYK Biomass is a metric that allows us to compare species of different sizes & can be an indicator of wild mammal presence, trends & impacts worldwide?🦌
Yet global wild mammal biomass has declined by 82%, indicating serious #biodiversity loss.🥀

Natural ecosystems are essential for maintaining #biodiversity & mitigating the effects of #ClimateChange . ⛰️
Yet, nearly half of our natural ecosystems have been lost. 🍂
—ipbes #GlobalAssessment
Let's protect and restore them #ForNature and for ourselves. 🌏
Two papers out today in Science Magazine with important messages:
(1) that urgent action needed to implement the #BiodiversityPlan
(2) action works!
Dr. Anne Larigauderie, IPBES Executive Secretary, will be awarded an Honorary Doctorate by Universitetet i Bergen, Norway🇳🇴, nominated by the university leadership.
The recognition honours her lifetime work for the protection of #biodiversity 🌎
CONGRATULATIONS Anne! 👏🏽

Forests cover 1/3 of land globally and are essential for planetary health and human well-being.
New interactive report from Food and Agriculture Organization explores trends impacting forests & how they have changed in the last 30 years. fao.org/forest-resourc…
#GoodNews - Conservation Works!
See our new paper led by Penny Langhammer Re:wild in Science Magazine
And... eradication & control of #InvasiveSpecies showed the largest impact of conservation action
If GBF Targets to be met - need increased investment

This may be one of the biggest papers I ever have the privilege to be part of.
Out now in Science Magazine, we ask: Are nature conservation interventions working?
The answer is YES. We now need to fund MORE to reverse global biodiversity declines.

#Biodiversity & water are closely & inextricably linked.💧🌱
Biodiversity supports water resources incl soil & plant nutrient cycling.🔁 Water resources support biodiversity; lack of water leads to #Biodiversity Loss.

Global trends and scenarios for terrestrial biodiversity and ecosystem services from 1900 to 2050. Our paper Science Magazine shows declines in biodiversity and regulating services driven by land-use can be slowed but climate impacts are accelerating #1/ science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
