The document builds on discussions that have taken place over the last decade between the IUCN CEESP-SSC Sustainable Use and Livelihoods Specialist Group and the IUCN SSC Red List Committee and draws on experience from the IPBES ILK Approach. Indeed the IPBES Global Assessment (GA) was the first global scale assessment to engage systematically with ILK. The document refers to IPBES' work which has influenced and informed this process by IUCN. Moreover, various IPBES experts and knowledge holders have contributed to this document, including Marla R. Emery, Flore Lafaye de Micheaux and Phil Lyver. In other words, the work of IPBES has provided a framework and approach to engage with ILK and IPLCs in scientific assessments, and this has influenced the development of these guidelines for gathering and utilizing ILK in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. |

490 | Wed, 14/09/2022 | Anonymous | Ernst & Young, Microsoft and Earth Knowledge Leverage IPBES Global Assessment Findings in New Joint Report on Financial Services for Conservation, Sustainability and Biodiversity | English (396) | Leveraging findings from the IPBES Global Assessment (2019), a new report by EY, Microsoft, and Earth Knowledge warns that the financial industry runs the danger of doing enormous harm to both itself and businesses across the world if it doesn't utilize its "huge influence" to halt behaviors that hurt the environment. The report states that the largest investment banks in the world provided $2.6 trillion in loans and underwriting services related to the destruction of nature in 2019 alone. The analysis, however, claims that there is still hope. It highlights large, unrealized profit prospects for the financial services industry related to biodiversity, sustainability, and conservation. The financial industry may benefit from an estimated $800 billion annual biodiversity funding gap by fostering nature's resilience, productivity, and adaptation. If the world is to reach its climate change, biodiversity, and land degradation commitments, this investment must triple in real terms by 2030 and quadruple by 2050. | New/changed research project | Website | Financial sector has ‘great power’ to stop biodiversity loss and reap the rewards of being ‘nature positive’, report reveals | Financial sector has ‘great power’ to stop biodiversity loss and reap the rewards of being ‘nature positive’, report reveals | https://news.microsoft.com/en-gb/2021/10/13/financial-sector-has-great-power-to-stop-biodiversity-loss-and-reap-the-rewards-of-being-nature-positive-report-reveals/ | 2021-10-13 | Global | private | Fernando | Neda | IPBES | PIA | Secretariat: Bonn | [email protected] | ||||||||||||||

494 | Tue, 27/09/2022 | Fernando Neda | Colombia Develops National Assessment of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services with Guidance from IPBES | Spanish (399) | Providing a first-ever panorama, Colombia developed an assessment of the past, present and future of the country's fauna and flora, as well as its terrestrial and marine ecosystems. The 2,000-page 'National Assessment of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services' was launched by the Humboldt Institute with the support of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES). The report was prepared by 106 authors, who participated independently as part of the Capacity Building for National Ecosystem Assessments: Linking Science and Policy and Biodiversity, and it also includes contributions from the Ecosystem Services Network (BES-Net) initiative. The evaluation gathers strategic data on the status and trends of biological diversity linked to the well-being of Colombians, evidencing trajectories of change and possible futures, which will be valid until 2050. For nearly four years, the researchers dedicated at least 93,000 hours of volunteer work to collect and analyze more than 1,500 sources of secondary scientific information, associated with terrestrial, freshwater, coastal, marine and insular ecosystems. Indigenous, black, Afro-descendant, Palenquero, Raizal, peasant and local peoples and communities from all regions of Colombia were involved in the development of six thematic chapters that review the state of biodiversity in Colombia. |

496 | Wed, 28/09/2022 | Anonymous | Citing IPBES Findings, Pantone and Tealeaves Call Attention To Biodiversity Threat With New Fossil-Inspired Color | English (396) | Citing IPBES' finding that over one million species are under the threat of extinction, global colour authority Pantone Color Institute (PCI), in partnership with tea brand Tealeaves, announced a new Pantone color based on the world’s oldest found pigment and meant to draw attention to biodiversity loss. With the "Pantone Color of Biodiversity," they look to support the United Nations Biodiversity endeavor, the World Biodiversity Forum, and 30x30 initiatives to protect at least 30 percent of the Earth's land and oceans by 2030. Launched on the first day of the 2022 meeting of the UN General Assembly, the Pantone Color of Biodiversity, a bright pink hue, calls attention to the variety of species and ecosystems that underpin the health of the planet and viability of life, and the alarming rate at which the world is losing them. The color represents the evolution of biodiversity and aims to bring awareness to biodiversity loss, a rising global environmental threat. Based on pigments made from 1.1-billion-year-old marine sedimentary rocks of the Taoudeni Basin in Mauritania, West Africa, and discovered by Dr. Nur Gueneili, Pantone’s new color results from microscopic fossils of chlorophyll produced by ancient species living in an ocean that no longer exists. |

515 | Wed, 05/10/2022 | Fernando Neda | Researcher Uses IPBES Findings in Working Paper on Climate Attribution Science & Endangered Species Act | English (396) | According to the 2019 IPBES Global Assessment, there are presently an estimated one million species that are in danger of going extinct, with climate change playing a significant role in the risk's escalation. Recent studies on the detection and attribution of climate change, which look at how anthropogenic climate change is currently affecting our planet, have shown that habitats and species are already suffering from phenomena like rising land and water temperatures, melting ice and permafrost, sea level rise, more extreme weather events, and other changes in the bioclimatic conditions of particular habitats. Changes in species distribution, phenology, and population dynamics are being driven by these events. New research by Jessica Wentz, a fellow at the Sabin Center for Climate Change Law, Columbia Law School, uses findings from the IPBES Global Assessment in an examination of how the Endangered Species Act (ESA) decision-making process uses research to identify and attribute climate change. Decision-makers can use attribution science to evaluate the extent to which particular species are already in danger due to climate change, identify general trends in how climate change affects species and habitats, and create better management strategies to deal with the risks posed by the phenomenon. |
