Setting science-based targets for species in the post-2020 Biodiversity Framework

Pourquoi assister à cette session?
This session will outline the new Species Threat Abatement & Restoration (STAR) metric for breaking down the emerging post-2020 mission for biodiversity into science-based targets for a Country, Company or City.
HideDescription
The world’s biodiversity is in crisis. Despite a surge of optimism a decade ago, overall trends in biodiversity are negative across its dimensions. The success of the Paris climate agreement demonstrated how crucial it is that the emerging post-2020 biodiversity framework for biodiversity can then be broken down, so that any actor can discern - and have agency over - the changes necessary to determine their own footprint and related responsibility and pledge their contributions. In this session we will outline new methods for setting these science-based targets for species, and hear results from tests underway in China, South Africa and Brazil, as well as the perspectives on implementation from finance, urban, and private sector arenas.
