614 | Wed, 13/12/2023 | Fernando Neda | US Senate Resolution Introduced that Highlights IPBES Science and Amplifies Call for National Biodiversity Strategy | English (396) | Oregon’s U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley introduced a non-binding resolution in the U.S. Senate to establish a National Biodiversity Strategy. The resolution would express the need for the United States to establish a national biodiversity strategy to protect species biodiversity. Such a strategy would encourage federal agencies to identify and pursue a full range of actions within existing laws and policies while encouraging the consideration of new ones, as well as establish a new four-year assessment to monitor the progress in addressing the biodiversity crisis. The resolution notes that "whereas the United States should play a leading role on the international stage in addressing the biodiversity crisis, yet the United States... (3) does not have a national biodiversity strategy as part of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services." The resolution references IPBES science published in the 2019 Global Assessment, stating that "whereas recent scientific studies have shown that human driven threats have harmed biodiversity by (1) threatening approximately 1,000,000 species with imminent or near extinction." It also makes references to scientific evidence on the decline of wild species, the need to control threats posed by invasive species, as well as drivers of biodiversity loss. Over 120 organizations endorsed the resolution. Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Ben Cardin (D-MD), Peter Welch (D-VT), and Cory Booker (D-NJ) joined Senator Merkley in sponsoring the resolution. |

488 | Wed, 14/09/2022 | Anonymous | Viet Nam Launched its First National Ecosystem Assessment Report Building on IPBES Assessment Methodology | English (396) | Viet Nam’s diverse and vital ecosystems are slowly being pushed to the brink for socioeconomic development. At the launch of Viet Nam’s national ecosystem assessment in early 2022, experts emphasized the urgent need to reconcile biodiversity conservation and ecosystem protection across all economic and social development policies to ensure a sustainable future for Viet Nam. The assessment, which began in 2018, is the first of its kind in Viet Nam, establishing a sound knowledge and evidence base on biodiversity, building on the global assessment undertaken by the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services and IPBES assessment methodology. The assessment helps connect scientists to practitioners and policymakers in the country and will play a critical role in informing policymaking. The findings from the assessment are currently being used for the formulation of national policies such as the National Strategy on Environment Protection (to 2030 and a vision to 2050) and the National Strategy on Biodiversity Conservation (2021–2030). They are also contributing to Viet Nam’s sixth national report to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity. The assessment findings will be shared with different stakeholders, mobilizing support and action to translate its recommendations into policy and practice. To this end, Viet Nam is also one of the first countries to receive the BES Solution Fund, BES-Net’s catalytic fund for implementing tangible, evidence-based, on-the-ground biodiversity solutions. This support will go towards building visibility for the assessment and promoting key findings in decision-making. |

525 | Wed, 19/10/2022 | Fernando Neda | Researchers Use IPBES Framework To Help Identify Key Relationships Between Nature and Well-being in New Zealand | English (396) | Researchers in New Zealand have published a new study exploring the relationship between natural capital and well-being in the country. The scientists used the IPBES classification to describe the contributions coming from “natural capital,” including material, non-material, and regulating ecosystem services or nature’s contributions to people (ES/NCP). Goal B of the initial draft of the Convention on Biological Diversity's post-2020 global biodiversity framework acknowledged that "Nature and its contributions to humans are properly accounted for and guide all relevant public and private actions." The researchers call their method "a step forward" in helping analyze the most important factors affecting the link between nature and human well-being, improving narratives about the challenges and opportunities for change for these international commitments, as well as providing a foundation for tracking progress. The procedure was evaluated utilizing three ES/NCP, one from each major IPBES category of material, regulating, and non-material, as well as two well-being domains (subjective well-being and health status) with varying degrees of objectivity. The research concludes that "that regulating ES/NCP contributed to the six broader categories of well-being, with non-material ES/NCP contributing to health, social relations, material well-being, and environmental quality categories." |

555 | Sat, 29/04/2023 | Fernando Neda | Protocol Developed to Operationalize IPBES Nature Futures Framework (NFF) by Combining it with Multi-Objective Optimization | English (396) | Through a case study of a rural landscape in northeastern Japan, researchers have developed a protocol with three specifications for operationalizing the IPBES Nature Futures Framework (NFF) in a landscape scenario analysis using a multi-objective optimization framework composed of: (1) exploring nature-positive futures, (2) seeking alternative pathways for targets satisfying visions of plural values, and (3) screening key direct drivers to achieve the targets. This study modeled the NFF-based scenarios by applying the concept of multi-objective optimization and a landscape change model to explore desirable futures, seek targets in the NFF state space, and screen response options for reaching these targets in the Bekambeushi River watershed in northeastern Japan. The protocol identified multiple, but few nature-positive and Pareto optimal strategies that satisfied NFF visions; nature-positive, but not Pareto optimal strategies; and non-nature-positive strategies. The protocol also identified key response options to achieve three different NFF value perspectives in the case study area: (1) clear or selective cutting in forestry and (2) solar PV installation on abandoned pastureland in agriculture and energy sectors. |
