We have global crises for biodiversity, climate, water, food and health So it is good to see this new IPBES report on how they need to be tackled together, and the threat of cascading and compounding of impacts www.ipbes.net/node/85582

Vanuatu's statement on the outcome of #COP29 sums it up nicely: “It’s not enough. It was never going to be enough.”

#COP29 has failed to deliver.❌ Trust is broken as leaders leave glaring gaps in finance and ambition—putting people, planet, and the world’s poorest at risk. We’ll keep fighting. The climate and nature crisis can’t wait another year.
An Avocet stands poised in shallow water, its black-and-white plumage stark against the fragile stillness. Wings raised in a protective threat posture, it embodies a planet fighting for survival—a reminder of what’s at risk and why the fight for people and planet must go on.

#COP29 ends in betrayal of the Global South. Failure of wealthier countries to deliver sufficient finance shows yet again the sickening injustice & inequality at the heart of this process. Solidarity with all who fought for better - the fight continues www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Cop29 agrees $1.3tn climate finance deal but campaigners brand it a ‘betrayal’
Deep divisions remain after high-stakes talks end with agreement to help developing world shift to low-carbon economy

Fascinating to hear from the @universityofoxford.bsky.social #Cop16 delegation on their take around the wins and failures of the Cop. Interesting to understand the role #academics can play in negotiations. Watch this space for the recording...

Our new research just out in PLOS Climate shows how NbS have the potential to drive job creation, boost income, whilst also supporting climate and sustainable development goals.

I was very happy to be able to speak on a panel yesterday about our debrief from COP16, including what happened with the negotiations on biodiversity and climate change and what role academics can play in the UN CBD

I meant to do this ages ago but finally got around to it - this is a 'getting started on climate bluesky' doc that gathers up basic intro stuff, climate starter packs and climate feeds *Please* reply with everything I've forgotten (which is a lot), I had to smash this out quickly last night!

Despite so much momentum for linking the climate and biodiversity agendas at COP16, COP29 has so far fallen flat. Hopefully with Nature Day around the corner and some Parties championing this issue we see some stronger text on policy alignment

There are many ways in which the potential marriage of the goals tackling climate change and restoring biodiversity is a good thing. But also real dangers of an abusive relationship if biodiversity is subordinated to an overpowering drive for carbon sequestration and biofuels.
