Anticiper les changements climatiques pour protéger la biodiversité des zones humides

Anticiper les changements climatiques pour protéger la biodiversité des zones humides | Biodiversité | Scoop.it
La protection des zones humides joue un rôle clé dans l’adaptation des oiseaux au changement climatique. Pourtant, nombre d’entre elles ne sont toujours pas protégées.

Non-material costs of wildlife conservation to local people and their implications for conservation interventions - ScienceDirect

•Current research on the costs of wildlife conservation tends to focus on material aspect of human well-being.

•Limited studies on non-material costs are characterised by conceptual ambiguity, which limits comparability.

•A better understanding of non-material costs of wildlife conservation can improve wildlife conservation.

•We define, categorizeand characterize non-material costs of wildlife conservation. 

•Implications for measuring non-material costs and designing socially just conservation interventions are discussed.

21st EMBL Science and Society Conference - Our House is Burning: Scientific and Societal Responses to Mass Extinction

21st EMBL Science and Society Conference - Our House is Burning: Scientific and Societal Responses to Mass Extinction | Biodiversité | Scoop.it

There have been five mass extinctions in Earth’s history, but are we already in the midst of a sixth? At least one million animal and plant species are currently threatened with extinction, many within decades – a rate unprecedented in human history.

To what extent, however, can we measure loss of biodiversity across scales, or accurately identify the causes of mass extinction? And how will this development affect the planet? More importantly, perhaps, is the question of whether scientific and societal interventions can effectively tackle this issue.
