The Collaborative Network for Valuing Earth Information (CONVEI) launches today! This exciting program with partners @NASAEarth @NOAAResearch @USGS is dedicated to understanding how #EarthObservations can help protect our planet & promote social justice. bit.ly/3oUK6N4
Only 18% of global lands critical for biodiversity & supporting human well-being are protected; more than 1/3 show high potential for development. Our paper out today shines a light on these high value areas & the need for strategic spatial planning so people & nature can thrive.
It's possible to achieve #biodiversity, #climate, and #development goals, if countries coordinate. Our new study points to areas where conservation and sustainable management can provide 90% of nature's contributions to people and meet biodiversity goals: link.springer.com/article/10…

New research shows that only 18% of global land area needed for human well-being and biodiversity is protected.
Learn how we can balance nature and development in @World_Wildlife scientist @beckyck 's latest publication in @NatureComms: nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
What a fun chat we had on the "potential and pitfalls of Earth observation and AI for conservation solutions", aired today at the UN #NatureForLife Hub! You can watch along at youtube.com/watch?v=EA4xKz8o… Thanks @amydawnr for organizing!

@beckyck of @WWF gives a great speech @EconomistEvents

I normally eschew social media crossovers but Twitter is dead anyway & I told my kids I'd try to win this contest to be the #RealestPersonOnEarth on @BeReal_App, because I'm keeping it real by keeping the Earth alive. That's my job. So, boom. 💥 Pick me. bere.al/bexers
Our latest research out in #COSUST shows that incorporating diverse views and values in conservation efforts results in better outcomes for both people and nature. Which begs the question, what if protected areas protected justice as well as biodiversity?sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Thanks to my many brilliant coauthors @rachelneugarten @GAhmadia @tbaird007 @HaroldEyster @wiliwilinat @Jorge_Geopis @alsmillington @KanakaKupa @unaipasku & several others working towards transformative change in conservation -- I learned so much from all of you!
Key takeaways from @IPBES #InvasiveAlienSpecies Assessment below. Also important to note: of the $423 billion that invasives cost us globally in 2019, 92% was due to the negative impacts of those species on society. The costs of doing nothing far exceed the cost of management!
You've seen headlines today about the new @IPBES Report on #InvasiveAlienSpecies? Here's a 1-min. snapshot of what the world's best experts say on the growth of this problem & its impacts.
Take 1 minute: this affects you, your family and your community! ipbes.net/IASmediarelease
My first Op-Ed out today! In @thehill with @unaipasku, reflecting on our recent paper in @Nature that grew out of last year's #IPBESValuesAssessment, about the importance of including diverse values for nature in decision-making. thehill.com/opinion/energy-e… @WWFscience @NatCapProject

Calling all #openscience (and/or donut!) lovers @ #ESA2023! Free voodoo donuts to the first 2 dozen ppl at our 8am session tomorrow! We're debuting an app for field ecologists who want an easier way to access satellite data for broader landscape context. esa2023.eventscribe.net/fsPo…
Our paper on diverse ways of understanding nature's diverse values is out in @Nature! Open access here: nature.com/articles/s41586-0… Great succinct synopsis in news & views here: nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

Humanity depends on nature for clean air, freshwater and so much more! New research from @World_Wildlife's @beckyck shows that protecting regions with high biodiversity preserves many of nature's key contributions to people. Learn more in @naturesustainab: go.nature.com/3rrHM0K

We look at present & future #NCP levels and find higher levels in high-biodiversity regions, compared to controls.
Protecting areas of high #biodiversity value will secure our life support systems under #ClimateCrisis

Very excited to see this come out, the culmination of years of work & visioning & collaborative design. Thanks @hyejinkim715 for your leadership & @hmlfpereira for your inspiration, grateful to have been a part of this thoughtful & thought-provoking team. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Many scientists are trying to do actionable, high-impact science, but we don’t always have easy ways of measuring or conveying that impact. Our goal for CONVEI is to develop more diverse and accessible ways of understanding how science generates societal benefits.
Are you a researcher in academia, NGO, public or private sector that works with EO? Join us! Find out more information about how to become part of the collaborative here: worldwildlife.org/valuing-ea…
