It may not be true that #climatechange is linked to excess #population, but #biodiversity #loss certainly is - & the combination of #climate change, #biodiversityloss, the deleterious impact of #modern intensive #farming #methods & #overpopulation will lead to a Malthusian catastrophe, @ConversationUK.

Gardens Paved Over, Life's Magic Diminished
Nearly half of Britain's garden space is now paved over, leading to less space for wildlife like hedgehogs and bees. Find out how this impacts urban biodiversity.

Almost half of UK gardens are now paved, a big change from green spaces that used to support many animals. This is a significant loss for urban wildlife.

A new study shows conservation actions are effective, but we need to protect 30% of land and sea by 2030. This is a big step to help nature.

NEED TO KNOW:
40% of #bees and #pollinator species endangered worldwide
25% of bee species no longer showing up on field records across the #planet
76% decrease by mass in flying #insects in Germany ON NATURE RESERVES over a 26 year period
Bee populations decreasing by 5% each year
All caused by humans.
Primarily due to what we choose to eat and how we choose to produce it.#education

"Global biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse and national security" - "A national security assessment" -
We are currently experiencing a triple planetary crisis: #ClimateChange, #BiodiversityLoss and #EnvironmentalPollution are deeply interconnected and threaten human life. A new series of reports identifies common causes and challenges to find mutually reinforcing solutions.

Vivid case-study of #invasivespecies - it didn't begin with the purple flowers...
"Up to 40% of Iceland was covered in forest when the Vikings arrived in the ninth century, but more than a millennium of deforestation and sheep farming has resulted in significant desertification. Advocates say the lupin is helping. But Óskarsdóttir says it is not so simple."

This infographic from IPBES (Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services) explains the four "method families" for assessing the values of nature. It highlights that the global biodiversity crisis is linked to how nature is valued in decisions. The infographic describes four different approaches to valuation: nature-based, statement-based, behaviour-based, and integrated valuation.

The #PhilosophicalTransactionsRoyalSocietyB has a special issue on "Transforming terrestrial #Food systems for #human and planetary #health which can be accessed here:
https://royalsocietypublishing.org/toc/rstb/2025/380/1935How to transform the failing global food system to provide a resilient, #sustainable food future is one of the most urgent problems facing the world. There are increasing calls for a need to transform the system as some of the greatest challenges facing humankind (#ClimateChange, #BiodiversityLoss, #obesity) are linked with how we produce and consume food. Global changes in food demand and dietary habits are placing an unsustainable burden on healthcare systems and environmental #sustainability.
It is within this context that United Kingdom Research and Innovation (#UKRI) invested £47.5 million into a programme ‘Transforming the UK Food System for Healthy People and a Healthy Environment’ (#TUKFS). The objective of the programme is to fundamentally transform the UK food system by placing healthy people and a healthy natural environment at its centre. In this theme issue, leading researchers involved with this programme describe some of the major outputs: new data, evidence and conclusions covering key components and stakeholders of the food system. The papers here provide a case study from the UK which can be compared to and inform policies around the world.

The Palm Temple (6 photos)
In 2020, the University of Bristol in Bristol, UK, saw the installation of a fascinating and unique public art piece. Created by artist Luke Jerram, this facility not only boasts stunning visuals, but also offers a bench inside, allowing visitors to sit back and immerse themselves in what feels like a colorful rainbow conservatory. The story behind this art installation began in September 2019, when Luke Jerram was approached by Milan-based production company 3D Produzioni. They requested […]
