As #COP17, the UN biodiversity summit in Armenia, approaches, our npj Biodiversity article highlights a persistent gap: biodiversity isn’t getting the attention it needs. COP17 is a chance to capture public interest and show why conservation matters. nature.com/articles/s44185-0…

Οδός Κυριάκου Μάτση στη Λευκωσία, από τη συμβολή με την οδό Γλαύκου μέχρι τον κυκλικό κόμβο του Προεδρικού, ίσως ο ομορφότερος δρόμος της πρωτεύουσας και ένας από τους ομορφότερους της χώρας. Κάθε φορά που τον διασχίζω λέω "ευχαριστώ" από καρδιάς, σε αυτούς που τον σχεδίασαν, που τον έφτιαξαν και που τον συντηρούν. Οι φωτογραφίες ελάχιστα αναπαράγουν την ομορφιά.

Higher wild boar abundance = more crop damage. But is more culling the answer? In Xishuangbanna, China, higher wild boar abundance was also linked to higher vertebrate richness and more stable co-occurrence networks. Conflict-driven culling may have unintended ecological costs.

From Oct 2022 to Jan 2023: • COP27 got 7x more media coverage than COP15. • Taylor Swift’s Midnights album got 2x more coverage than COP15. Even biodiversity-rich countries barely reported on COP15. We’re ignoring the #biodiversity crisis. 2/3 #TaylorSwift #COP15 #COP27

Biodiversity is vanishing, but are we even paying attention? This comment compared global media coverage of COP15 (biodiversity) with COP27 (climate) and… Taylor Swift. The results are shocking. 👇 nature.com/articles/s44185-0… 🧵1/3 @NaturePortfolio @Nature_NPJ @taylorswift13

The world has reached an important milestone: 10% of the ocean is now protected. In just two years, countries have added 5 million km² of protected ocean. That’s real progress. But this isn’t the finish line … The next challenge isn’t just protecting more ocean - it’s protecting it well. info.iucn.org/4c0AK6I @protectedplanet @unepwcmc

Our analysis of 60+ #cities worldwide reveals a clear gap: Large areas of plantable land are often underutilized. By increasing 🌳 cover in parking lots & along streets, cities can reduce heat exposure — and save lives. 👉 bit.ly/4wbgXur @WRIClimate @Cities4Forests
