Tackling biodiversity loss means addressing its roots: climate change and pollution – together. In the new LEVER project, researchers and local communities across five regions worldwide co-develop pathways to better govern the climate–biodiversity–pollution nexus – translating local values into policy and practical pathways for change.

"While thousands of soldiers and civilians are killed or wounded on the other side of the world, companies move quickly to unlock projects that feed strategic supply chains in times of war. In this context, the Brazilian Amazon – a living territory home to more than 180 Indigenous peoples – is once again being treated as a sacrifice zone."

During Trump’s first term, border wall construction had widespread impacts on protected landscapes and sacred sites... A contractor also bulldozed a road through an archaic Hohokam burial site on the border in Coronado National Forest, even though they’d been briefed by the tribe beforehand.

Aboriginal organisations combine in vision for ‘healthy country’
"Aboriginal organisations from across the North Coast have combined to care for Country, protect threatened species and strengthen intergenerational cultural knowledge."
“The project is empowering Aboriginal communities to continue traditional and contemporary caring for Country practices while creating opportunities to share knowledge and develop professional networks that will provide lasting benefits beyond the project.” >>

Stop destabilizing the Earth system! (Pt. 2)
Halting and reversing biodiversity loss toward restoring Earth system stability
... "Our findings emphasize that preventing the loss of intact biomes, ecosystems, and species assemblages is the most critical strategy while acknowledging the urgency of extinction prevention and the need for restoration. Additionally, we highlight the importance of incorporating Indigenous and local knowledge systems alongside scientific methods to achieve effective and equitable conservation outcomes. Finally, we discuss the need for economic transformation and the private sector’s role in fostering an NP future."
"Incorporating Indigenous or traditional knowledge and practices, which are rooted in responsibility to the living world and inherently include awareness of biotic and abiotic processes, is essential to achieving the NP goal."
"The NP shift requires transforming our economic system to work within the Earth system and equitably support human development.
Human exploitation of nature driven by prevailing economic systems of production and consumption is causing a rapid and catastrophic decline in biodiversity (1) while simultaneously disrupting the climate system (2). These actions are actively destabilizing the Earth system upon which human health and development depend (3), and the trajectory of environmental degradation is accelerating, placing life as we know it at grave risk" >>Locke, H., Hauer, R., et al.

Stop destabilizing the Earth system! (Pt 1)
Halting and reversing biodiversity loss toward restoring Earth system stability
"Human activities are driving a global decline in biodiversity and are interfering with the natural processes essential for human well-being. Achieving climate and development goals is impossible without keeping nature intact. In this article, we establish the urgent need for a paradigm shift toward a “Nature Positive” (NP) future, where the health and resilience of the Earth system are recognized as the fundamental basis for human prosperity. This requires that humanity acts to halt and reverse the loss of nature by 2030. The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) provides a critical roadmap for this NP goal, and global policy increasingly recognizes that environmental targets can only be effective when integrated with global climate, ocean, and human development agreements. This requires a biodiversity conservation approach that accounts for both biotic and abiotic components of the Earth system. We assess the adequacy of GBF targets for stabilizing the Earth system and highlight key gaps. We employ the Three Global Conditions Framework (3Cs), which categorizes landscapes by human impact levels as a practical method for guiding appropriate NP actions, and we extend its application to the marine realm. We outline specific actions and metrics for patterns and processes across all scales needed to achieve biodiversity conservation in synergy with climate stabilization and securing freshwater systems." >>

"Deep Time Australia
is an ABC News Story Lab project that provides a glimpse into the ancient history of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who have occupied this land for more than 65,000 years. The stories contained in this project belong to the knowledge holders and keepers, and they have been generously shared with the ABC for this project. Without them the beautiful complexity of this project would not have been possible."Tell me a story:

@jipexu bien sure. Et pour avoir un monde sans capitalisme il faut avoir un monde sans états. Comme Pierre Clastres a bien montré avec "La Societé contre l'Etat", comme les Indigènes sud-américans empêchaient la formation d'un état entre eux.

@indigenousclimateaction has officially released their latest report: Nature-Based Climate Solutions.
While NbCS are often positioned as climate solutions, this report takes a deeper look at what they mean for Indigenous Peoples, lands, and sovereignty.

Indigenous scholar Tyson Yunkaporta says the stories societies tell shape how people treat land and each other.
On the #Mongabay Newscast, he explains how “wrong stories” fuel exploitation, and how Indigenous knowledge and “right story” thinking could guide a more sustainable future.

Indigenous peoples are critical to protecting nature, yet their voices remain underrepresented.
Mongabay is launching an Indigenous Desk to center these perspectives in global journalism.
"Bringing forward Indigenous voices helps drive underreported stories and improve transparency," says Senior Editor Latoya Abulu.

The cost of dirt and the soil beneath our feet
