Are you ready for an in-depth look at the challenges and solutions of wildlife connectivity? The Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative, or Y2Y, is working on a grand scale to connect and protect habitats from Yellowstone to the Yukon, for the benefit of both people and nature.Today, we're joined by Kelly Zenkewich, Senior Communications and Digital Engagement Manager at Y2Y. We delve into the unique challenges of both the region and the scale of Y2Y's vision.As you'll hear, even if thinking about this area conjures up images of vast open spaces, there are still numerous highways, cities, fences, railroads, ranches, farms, and other human infrastructure that fragments the landscape.We discuss the charismatic animals of the area - from grizzly bears and wolverines to caribou and pronghorn - the diverse challenges faced by these animals, and the ways Y2Y is working to conserve them. We'll also learn about the unique approach of Y2Y, which works across 5 states, and 4 Canadian provinces and territories, as well as the territories of at least 75 indigenous groups. Kelly describes how they positively engage people across these communities using communication techniques such as asset framing and community-based social marketing.You can find more about Y2Y at y2y.net, and find them on instagram and facebook.FULL SHOW NOTESLINKSPeople, Animals, and OrganizationsAnat Shenker-Osorio - created approach similar to "Asset Framing"COP15 - recent biodiversity agreement was announced at COP15Doug McKenzie-Mohr - creator of community-based social marketingJodi Hilty, PhD - corridor ecology and connectivity expertMark Hebblewhite, PhD - studies ungulates including mountain caribouMichael Proctor, PhD - studying grizzly bear movements in BCPluie The WolfStoney Nakoda NationsTony Clevenger, PhD - wolverine researcherTrabian Shorters - creator of Asset FramingBooks and ResourcesNote: links to books are affiliate linksArticle about the new Trans-Canada Highway wildlife overpass that Kelly mentionsBeth Pratt discussing P-22 and Wildlife Crossings (Nature's Archive Episode 38)The following music was used for this media project:Music: Spellbound by Brian Holtz MusicFree download: https://filmmusic.io/song/9616-spellboundLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist website: https://brianholtzmusic.com Support the show

Aralık ayında Birleşmiş Milletler (BM) Biyoçeşitlilik Konferansı'na (COP15) katılan ülkeler, 2030 yılına kadar gezegenin üçte birini koruma altına alma konusunda anlaştı. “Tarihi” olarak nitelenen bu anlaşmaya Türkiye de taraf oldu. Ancak konu, her zaman olduğu gibi seçim siyaseti ve ekonomisinin gölgesinde kaldı. Oysa iklim değişikliği, temiz su ve gıdaya adil erişim, hepimizin yaşamsal gündemi: Kuruyan dere ve gölleri, yağmalanan orman ve sahilleri, susuz barajları dert ediyorsak doğayı talana açmayı acilen durdurmaktan başka çare yok. Sürdürülebilirlik uzmanı ve ornitolog Ferdi Akarsu ve gazeteci Mehveş Evin, COP15 konferansında öne çıkanları, biyoçeşitliliğin neyi kapsadığı ve iklim kriziyle mücadelede neden bu kadar önemli olduğunu masaya yatırıyor.

Nature provides the building blocks for civilization, arable soil, air and water filtration, ore and minerals for extraction, and economic and recreational opportunities. In almost any other context, you would expect to pay for these services. But with nature, we are wont to expect these things for nothing. Hence the title for the white paper we released late last year, “We don't value nature.”As financiers and economists, we are wont to look at nature and try to derive an ROI. And for that reason, institutions have underrated nature—the returns were not competitive with other asset classes. Part of the reason for that is society had not properly placed a price on all the benefits and pleasure it derives from nature. And by doing so, the thinking goes, nature will find a place in investors' portfolios. On this episode of RPM, Susanne Tavill, StepStone's Head of Responsible Investment, discusses nature-based investing. Among other things we discuss: How better pricing can help resolve the nature crisis (9:39); The relationship between climate and nature investing (13:40); The challenges investors are facing in building a nature-based portfolio (20:32); COP15: where it succeeded and how it can improve (23:12); and How the digital divide has been a two-way street (28:58).

Has the UN Biodiversity Convention been a force for ‘good' or ‘evil' in how biotech crops are regulated globally? AgBioFEWS Panelists: Asa Budnick, Nick Loschin, Joseph Opoku and Modesta Abugu AgBioFEWS Fellows Asa Budnick, Nick Loschin, Joseph Opoku Gakpo and Modesta Abugu will share their observations on and interrogate practices at the UN Biodiversity Conference (COP15) in Montreal, Canada that eventually lead to global decisions on the governance of biotech crops. Abstract The United Nations' Biodiversity Conference is a once every two years conference led by the Secretariat of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) that gathers stakeholders from all over the world to set out global plans on how to protect biodiversity. The December 2022 conference laid out a new set of nature protecting goals to be implemented from now till 2030, dubbed the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. The conference held from the 7th to 19th December 2022 served as the Fifteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP 15) to the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Tenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (CP-MOP 10), and the Fourth meeting of the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Nagoya Protocol on Access to Genetic Resources and the Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits Arising from their Utilization (NP-MOP 4). We present learnings from our participation in various plenary and working group sessions which deliberated on biotechnology regulations, risk assessment, detection and regulation of living/genetically modified organisms, agroecology, digital sequence information (DSI), among others. We also speak about our one-on-one meetings and side events with various delegates and groups, and inform on the role of academia and research organizations in influencing policy decisions at the CBD – COP. And then, respond to the question: Has the UN Biodiversity Convention been a force for ‘good' or ‘evil' in how biotech crops are regulated globally? Finally, we provide overall recommendations on how these deliberations could be improved if it should continue serving as the platform for decision making on biotech crop regulations globally.

In this hard-hitting, no-holds barred interview, Stephen Corry, who has been working as indigenous rights activist for some 50 years, gives his assessment of the outcome of COP15. Stephen brings an on-the-ground, hands-on perspective, and provides an analysis of the key policies and commitments that have been come out of COP15. In particular, Stephen provides a coruscating analysis of the way protected areas have actually been executed, how indigenous peoples have been systematically kicked off their lands—and sees the 30x30 conservation goal –30% of the planet in protected territories, without any humans—as a deeply cynical endeavour…driven by powerful underlying financial motives. Stephen Corry has been working now for more than 50 years in the area of indigenous peoples' rights. He is the former CEO of Survival International, a London based charity that campaigns for the rights of uncontacted peoples indigenous and tribal peoples, and was awarded the Right Livelihood Award in 1989.
In late December 2022, nearly 200 countries at the U.N. biodiversity conference known as COP15 reached a landmark agreement for protecting and restoring nature by 2030. Deforestation was a big topic of conversation at COP15 given the importance of forests for both biodiversity and climate change. In this episode of ESG Insider, we look at how some asset managers are addressing one of the largest drivers of forest loss, commodity-driven deforestation, which includes the clearing of forests for farming and mining. We speak with Jan Erik Saugestad, who is the CEO of Storebrand Asset Management, Norway's largest private asset manager. And we talk with Lauren Compere, Managing Director and Head of Stewardship and Engagement at Boston Common Asset Management.

Brian Czech, founder of the Center for the Advancement of the Steady State Economy, is an ecological economist and former conservation biologist. Brian joined me just after returning from COP15 and, thankfully, says the fallacy of economic growth is finally being discussed at these critical conferences.On the episode, Brian explains the relationship between economics and the planet's biosphere before introducing steady state economics, an economic model which prioritises stability and the protection of planetary boundaries. He also describes his time working for the US government, and walks us through the trophic theory which dismantles any techno-utopian argument that we can innovate our way out of the climate crisis and continue to enjoy growth for growth's sake.Planet: Critical investigates why the world is in crisis—and what to do about it.© Rachel Donald Get full access to Planet: Critical at www.planetcritical.com/subscribe

A landmark deal was reached after two weeks of talks in Montreal at the COP15 UN biodiversity summit, where nations from across the world agreed to a new set of goals and targets to “halt and reverse” biodiversity loss by 2030. The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework includes something we've been discussing often - the “30×30” target, to conserve 30% of the world's land and 30% of the ocean by 2030. What does this all mean? We dissect what went down at the talks with Julian Hyde (General Manager, Reef Check Malaysia), and Jasmin Mohd Saad (Policy Consultant, Reef Check Malaysia) in the final episode of our monthly series Biodiversity for Malaysia, which aimed to get everyone on the same page when it comes to all things biodiversity-related, especially on issues surrounding the Convention on Biological Diversity post-2020 framework process, the 30X30 target, and more.Photo credit: Shutterstock

Another global summit - COP15 – has concluded in Canada. It focused on biodiversity, which is the variety of all living things on earth. Activists, charities and ministers came together hoping to find solutions to protect and save forests, wetlands and water bodies before it's too late. Recent studies have suggested that nearly a third of all species are currently endangered due to human activities such as logging, climate change and farming. And scientists are warning that the biodiversity clock is ticking in Africa and around the world, putting human life and wildlife at risk. So how bad is the situation and what needs to be done to protect biodiversity? Alan Kasujja speaks to the BBC World Service Environment correspondent, Navin Singh Khadka.
Guest: Kate Allen, climate change reporter Will the United Nations Biodiversity Conference (COP15) be a “Montreal moment” in the fight to save the planet's biodiversity? That's how Steven Guilbeault, the federal minister of environment and climate change, described the conference while announcing what some are calling a historic and transformational agreement. While it takes Indigenous and global equity issues into account, some critics say there is more work to be done to hold governments accountable to ensure the deal's ambitious targets. This episode was produced by Brian Bradley, Paulo Marques and Raju Mudhar. Audio sources: Canadian Press

A historic deal has been struck at the UN's biodiversity conference, Cop15, which will set a course for nature recovery from now until 2050, including a target to protect 30% of the planet for nature by the end of the decade. One of the key phrases guiding the summit across the two weeks of negotiations was ‘nature positive'. Madeleine Finlay hears from the biodiversity reporter Phoebe Weston about what ‘nature positive' meant at Cop15, and what she'd like to see from countries now the final agreement has been made, and speaks to biodiversity professor EJ Milner-Gulland about how to stop the term ‘nature positive' becoming another way for companies to greenwash their businesses..

What is being done to stop marine biodiversity loss? Marine ecosystems are essential for all life on earth, providing benefits ranging from food to economic and recreational opportunities and more – with 3 billion people depending directly on marine and coastal biodiversity for their livelihoods. However, it is being lost at an alarming rate. COP15 in Montreal saw governments from around the world take a step towards addressing this threat to nature by agreeing ‘30 by 30', effective conservation and management of at least 30% of the world's lands, inland waters, coastal areas and oceans by 2030. In this podcast, we learn about the cost of marine biodiversity loss in Mexico, a megadiverse country and home to almost 70% of the world's diversity of species. We hear how Mexico are working to go above and beyond ‘30 by 30', to manage 100% of the ocean under national jurisdictions, as part of their role on the High Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean Economy. Global Director of WRI's Ocean Program, Kristian Teleki sat down with Martha Delgado and Andrew Rhodes from the government of Mexico during COP15, to discuss what these targets mean and what happens next for the future of our ocean.
durée : 00:06:15 - Camille passe au vert - par : Camille Crosnier - La COP15 s'est achevée à Montréal avec un accord « historique » d'après les commentateurs. L'est-il tant que cela ? Quels sont les points positifs et négatifs ?
United Nations' biodiversity summit COP15 finished with a historic deal earlier this week in Montreal. At NatureBacked, we discussed the essence of the agreement and how protecting biodiversity will become common. Nations agreed to protect 30% of the planet by 2030 and to protect vital ecosystems such as rainforests and wetlands and the rights of indigenous peoples. The Montreal summit was seen as a last chance for nature's biodiversity.“We have this global agreement that this is the thing - biodiversity needs to be protected. And action needs to be taken on this,” Merit Valdsalu, chief executive and co-founder of Estonian greentech startup Single.Earth, said in the podcast.“As a startup founder, it is now, I think, the craziest time where we can say that the United Nations just validated our utopian startup idea,” she said.Single.Earth is building a nature-backed currency of the future, minted from nature's work in keeping our planet livable.The Montreal agreement can change the world for the better, said Katherine von Stackelberg, a scientist working at Harvard and Single.Earth.“Everyone agrees we want to be nature positive. Make disclosures mandatory piece; everyone's moving in the right direction. But again, the devil is in the details,” said von Stackelberg.“There's still this idea: we're going to get nature into the economic system instead of thinking, how can we make the economic system more like nature? Because that's not that difficult. If you're going to be successful, you have to commit to something like a nature-backed currency. Nature is the only asset that has any value fundamentally and from which all else comes.” Von Stackelberg and Valdsalu said Single.Earth has the solution ready for turning the UN's biodiversity targets into tangible actions.“The crazy utopian idea that we had - we have this, it's working, we are creating a new currency based on nature; we have the first tokens dispersed, many tokens minted, it's there, it can be used. It's no longer about whether we are going to become nature-positive or net zero by 2030. We can do that today,” Valdsalu said.Follow NatureBacked across platforms:Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Google PodcastsTwitter | Instagram

The once-elegant city of Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine has become the main battlefield in the with Russia. We hear why much is riding on the fight to control Bakhmut. And COVID-19 infections in China are spiking — jumping from very few cases to tens of thousands per day — and China's government says that's OK. After years of “all-out war” on the virus, officials suddenly insist it's actually not much worse than the flu. Also, the UN Biodiversity Conference, or COP15, concluded with a deal to mitigate wildlife extinctions, in part, by setting aside more land and sea for preservation than ever before. Plus, to kick off the Hanukkah season, we hear diverse stories from the Old City, Jerusalem.

As the biodiversity focused COP15 continues in Montreal, we discuss how investors and companies have begun to understand the risks caused by biodiversity loss – maybe the most important long-term environmental problem we face. But If biodiversity is so important, why has climate change been the favorite child in the ESG space? And why has it taken a bit longer for the investment community to examine biodiversity loss with the same rigor as climate change? We answer that and more!Host: Mike Disabato, MSCI ESG ResearchGuests: Arne Klug, MSCI ESG Research

Invasive non-native species are on the rise around the world and, despite efforts to tackle the issue, their numbers are higher than ever. They have become one of the key driving forces behind biodiversity loss, posing an even greater threat to biodiversity than the climate crisis. Monitoring, tracking and managing invasive species is one of the issues up for discussion at the UN's biodiversity Cop15, which is now in full swing in Montreal, Canada. Ian Sample gets an update on how Cop15 is progressing from biodiversity and environment reporter Patrick Greenfield, and hears from Prof Helen Roy from the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology about why invasive species pose such a serious risk to native wildlife.
