Observatorio de la UCR denuncia que gobierno no ha presentado ni un solo reporte formal sobre estado de humedales ante Convención Ramsar

Desde el 30 de julio UNIVERSIDAD solicitó al Minae el texto de la intervención remitida por la Delegación de Costa Rica en la COP15; pero hasta la fecha no se ha recibido.

positive Töne im Artikel:

"[Es] ändert sich die Politik. Konnten Agrarchemiekonzerne früher mit festem Rückhalt in den meisten Regierungen rechnen, hat sich der Wind längst gedreht. Die #EU hat beschlossen, dass der Einsatz von Pestiziden bis 2030 um [die Hälfte reduziert werden soll]. Ein ähnliches Ziel steht auch beim #UN-Weltnaturschutzgipfel der Vereinten Nationen im Dezember in Montreal auf der Tagesordnung."

Tatsächlich hat die #UN 2022 in #Montreal auf der #COP15 sehr wichtige Schritte Richtung Biodiversität gelegt! Wichtig auch der Begriff #regenerativeAgriculture , der bereits bei #cop27 prominent war und auch bei der #cop28 auf der Agenda steht.

Hier soll nicht nur das Problem mit Pestiziden, Biodiversität und Überdüngung (Nitrate,Stickstoff) angegangen werden, sondern auch den Humusaufbau und die #CO2 Speicherung im Boden. Damit Landwirtschaft klimaverträglicher und nachhaltiger sein soll, also auch nachfolgende Generationen fruchtbare Böden voller Mikroorganismen vorfinden.

#COP15 #GlobalBiodiversityFramework

As Western media heralds the Kuming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework, you might've missed the views of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Cameroon, Uganda & Namibia, about how the deal was reached

Australian Conservation Foundation releases report: Risky business: How Australia’s banks and super funds are responding to the nature crisis.

It is the first benchmarking analysis of 20 of Australia’s largest banks and super funds’ approach to managing nature-related and #Biodiversity risks.

* 90% of super funds and 80% of banks have not set nature-related targets – and only 20% of banks and super funds say they plan to.
* None of the big four banks have a ‘no deforestation’ target, casting doubt on their net zero commitments. (The UN says companies cannot claim to be on the path to net zero while still funding deforestation.)
* Australia has the developed world’s highest rate of nature destruction, yet Australian banks and super funds are more likely to have policies to avoid financing nature destruction overseas (e.g. palm oil financing), than to protect koala and cockatoo habitat.
* Australian Ethical is the only super fund with a deforestation and ‘land conversion’ policy, while only four banks – Bank Australia, HSBC, Rabobank and Bendigo & Adelaide Bank – have one.

Interesting watching final text of #GlobalBiodiversityFramework Target 15 which requires that all businesses report on nature-related impacts and dependencies.

"Humanity has become a weapon of mass extinction"

So says Antonio Guterres at the launch of COP15, the biodiversity conference.

In today's episode we hear from leading Irish organisations who are working to protect what we have in Ireland

10 Must Dos from Biodiversity Science 2022:
1. protect 30% of land and sea areas by 2030, to designate a further 20% as climate stabilisation areas
2. consistent promotion and integration of biodiversity in urban areas,
3. widespread reduction of light around fauna-flora-habitat areas
4. preservation, maintenance and documentation of indigenous and local languages and their associated knowledge systems. This includes recognising land, territorial and socio-cultural rights of indigenous peoples and local communities (IPLCs).
5. global protection of primary forests from overexploitation and for the development of degraded forests into natural, climate-resilient forests through targeted planting and natural regeneration.
6. existing agriculture subsidies put towards more biodiversity-friendly production.
7. protection of natural resources (soil, water, air) and of biodiversity is mainstreamed in all political and planning decision-making processes locally, regionally, nationally and globally.
8. establishment of a secure long-term transregional and global monitoring system (stratified biodiversity monitoring) as well as of an extensive early warning system.
9. maintaining the open access and unrestricted use of these scientific biodiversity data sources, for expanding these information infrastructures, and for securing them in the long term.
10. abolishment of harmful subsidies and the provision of incentives for the economic and finance sector to invest in protecting and conserving biodiversity. To achieve this, the social costs of ecosystem services and biodiversity loss must be assessed monetarily and then entered into national accounts (including outsourced biodiversity loss in imported products)
