Hong Jiang discusses the future view of protected area and other effective area-based conservation measures expansion, and the difficulty of achieving these goals.

By mid-century climate change is set to become the primary cause of biodiversity loss, but there is still time to reduce the impact on global ecosystems and species, scientists say.

The boreal forest, covering much of Canada and Alaska, and the treeless shrublands to the north of the forest region, may be among the worst impacted by climate change over the next 500 years, according to a new study.

As researchers, we spend a lot of time communicating our work. Why is it important? What did we do? What have we learnt? Where could we take this next?

Bakeries in Nigeria which use traditional open ovens fuelled by hardwood cut from local forests are contributing to rapid deforestation and climate change, according to a study from academics working in Nigeria and from the University of York and UCL.

In July, LCAB’s Katie Noble and I climbed into some metal and carbon fibre tubes and travelled through the sky and the future to The Land Down Under. Apparently, the hippie trail is rewilded, and gassy, fried-out Kombis are harder to come by, so aeroplanes it was.

Professor Chris Thomas has reproduced the following article from the conference booklet of a New Networks for Nature meeting. He reflects on being both a scientist and a naturalist and on how we need to change our food production system to sustain our increasing human population.

PhD student Megan Tarrant recently returned from the 2022 Earth Systems Governance Conference in Toronto. In this article she considers the topic of “transformation” and how it links to justice, which featured heavily in the conference proceedings.

The in vitro production of real meat from animal cells, known as ‘cultured meat’ (CM), makes it possible to make meat without slaughtering animals. Katie Noble explores this emerging industry.

Many of the UK’s protected areas are not delivering for nature and are in poor ecological condition, a new report has found.
