465 | Fri, 19/08/2022 | bcurley1012 | The Artwork of Julie Sperling, Canadian Mosaic Artist and Environment Policy Analyst, is an Emotional Response to Key IPBES Assessment Findings and is a Call to Action for Transformative Change | English (396) | In a blog post Julie Sperling, Canadian mosaic artist and policy analyst with Environment and Climate Change Canada, cites key findings from IPBES Global Assessment, and makes personal and intimate the loss of global biodiversity through her art. Her loon explosion, titled ”In The Red”, showcasing the quintessentially Canadian loon, is meant to echo the idea of “annihilation”. The title is a nod to the International Union for Concerned Scientists’ "Red List" of Threatened Species, while the loon is hemmed in by concrete, which is an allusion to the rampant habitat destruction that’s fueling the current biological annihilation. Her art is a call to action: "So look into that loon’s eyes, harness the uneasiness, sadness, loss, guilt, rage, or whatever else you might feel, and channel it. I’ll be right there with you, fighting for our existence". | Other | Expressive arts | Website | Their annihilation will also be ours: Exploring extinction through art | Their annihilation will also be ours: Exploring extinction through art | http://sperlingmosaics.com/2019/05/their-annihilation-will-also-be-ours-exploring-extinction-through-art/ | 2021-05-12 | Americas | Canada | private | Britt | Curley | IPBES | Programme Management Assistant - Communications | Secretariat: Bonn | |||||||||||||

462 | Fri, 19/08/2022 | bcurley1012 | Informed by Key IPBES Assessment Findings, House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee Examines the State of Biodiversity in the UK and Actions Towards Biodiversity Protection | English (396) | The UK Government announced a ‘state of nature’ target aimed at halting the decline in nature in England by 2030, and plans to implement a raft of environmental policies to achieve these goals. While these policies are a welcome start, in their current form they do not represent the transformative change required to bend the curve of biodiversity loss. To help achieve the transformative change necessary, the House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee proposes a package of recommendations spanning biodiversity monitoring, funding, policy implementation, economics, and education. Informed by key IPBES Assessment findings, this report examines the state of biodiversity in the UK and how the UK can best protect and enhance biodiversity in the future, and seeks to evaluate the extent to which the UK is doing its part to deliver the transformative change necessary to reverse biodiversity loss. | New/changed commitment | Print Article | Biodiversity in the UK: bloom or bust?

460 | Fri, 19/08/2022 | bcurley1012 | Building on Key Finding in IPBES Assessment, Literature Review Article Unpacks the Concept of Transformative Governance. | English (396) | This review builds on key findings of IPBES Assessment and has been elaborated to operationalize the concept of transformative governance. The article argues that transformative governance is needed to enable the transformative change necessary for achieving global sustainability goals. It must be: integrative, inclusive, adaptive, and pluralist. The article further argues that governance becomes transformative only when these four governance approaches are: implemented in conjunction; operationalized in a specific manner; and focused on addressing the indirect drivers underlying sustainability issues. |

The authors argue that while attempts to emulate climate science and governance are understandable, for biodiversity this is not a good idea. A narrow focus on biodiversity as species and biodiversity loss as species extinction may be easy to communicate and attractive for policy makers, NGOs or media to signal the urgency of the biodiversity crisis, but it is seriously limited in its ability to reflect diverse values and worldviews and catalyse the effective action that is needed to ensure the wellbeing of people and nature. | New/changed idea | Website | Biodiversity and species extinction: categorisation, calculation, and communication | Biodiversity and species extinction: categorisation, calculation, and communication | https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10383441.2020.1925204 | 2021-07-17 | Multi-organizational/network | Cross-regional | public | Britt | Curley | IPBES | Programme Management Assistant - Communications | Secretariat: Bonn | ||||||||||||||
