In between years, one looks back at the past months. What really kept me going? The @yess-network.bsky.social, a network of early career scientists and researchers working on ecosystems and their services. Highly recommended to join and connect, research is no one-man-show, we got your back!

Thousands of scientific references synthesized into one assessment. The IPBES #BizBiodiversity report will provide decision-makers with critical insights to measure business dependencies and impacts on biodiversity and nature's contributions to people. 💡 https://ipbes.canto.de/b/HJAGG#BizBiodiversity #IPBES12

Starke Frauen für die Wissenschaft. So titelt die aktuelle Ausgabe der @zeit.de. Und ich freue mich, unten in der Ecke mein eigenes Bild zu sehen, als #ZIA Fellow 2025/26. Sichtbarkeit ist wichtig, gerade für junge Wissenschaftlerinnen. Danke für diese Auszeichnung! zeitfuerx.de/forschung/zi...

⚠️Das #Pariser #Klimaabkommen wurde vor 10 Jahren verabschiedet. Zwar war es ein bedeutsamer Fortschritt in der internationalen Klimapolitik, doch seine Umsetzung bleibt hinter dem Notwendigen zurück. Dies nehmen wir zum Anlass, um auf die Einhaltung globaler und nationaler CO2-Budgets zu drängen.

Co-creating inclusive NbS for just and liveable cities - conference session coming up! Submit your work until the 18th of December and meet me, Olga Ivlieva and Diana Dushkova in Prague! Lets talk ecosystem services and communities. Call for abstracts now open @yess-network.bsky.social #ESP26Europe

Ein Jahr nationalen Kreislaufwirtschaftsstrategie - und nun? Der @umweltrat.bsky.social hat zusammengefasst, was jetzt wichtig ist.

Networking is one of the most important aspects of #PhD careers. Are you working on ecosystem services, nature-based solutions or biodiversity in your early career as scientist? Do join @yess-network.bsky.social. Our mission is to establish a group for knowledge sharing, trainings and minds alike.

Networks are important to young researchers in environmental and ecosystem services research. Do consider this session of the @yess-network.bsky.social for your work, if you are a #PhD or #ECR! Great opportunity to meet like-minded scientists at the #ESP2026Europe in Prague next year.

Co-creating with people and nature: inclusive NbS to promote justice and equity for building sustainable, resilient and liveable cities - our dedicated session at the #ESP2026europe will explore this. Diana Dushkova and Olya Ivlieva. Submit your work or share @kasselinstitute.bsky.social @ufz.de

The 6th #EcosystemServicesPartnership Conference is coming up. Join our session on #Co-creating with people and nature: Inclusive #NbS to promote justice and equity for building sustainable, resilient and liveable cities. Submit your abstract! #ESP26europe www.espconference.org/europe2026/h...

Dear fellow scientists - sign the open letter from the #S4F today. Climate neutrality is Europe‘s greatest economic chance. #forFuture #callforaction bsky.app/profile/imsi...

European scientists — this is the moment to speak up. Ahead of the EU Council on Oct 23, we must stand together for a science-based 2040 climate target. A 90–95% domestic GHG reduction by 2040 is not radical — it’s necessary. Sign the letter from #Scientists4Future! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Nouvelles recherches disponibles sur la multifonctionnalité des paysages et des services écosystémiques dans l'Océan Indien - L'étude de cas de La Réunion revue-set.fr/article/view...

Landschaften sind mehr als Kulisse – sie liefern Nahrung, Wasser, Schutz, Identität. Auf La Réunion zeigt sich, wie vielfältig diese Ökosystemleistungen ineinandergreifen – von Zuckerrohrfeldern bis zu Vulkanökosystemen. 🌱🏞️ revue-set.fr/article/view...

Renaturierung ist mehr als „Naturschutz“, sie ist Klimaanpassung, Biodiversitätsschutz und Zukunftssicherung in einem. 🌱 Spannende Empfehlungen vom SRU, WBBGR & WBW – und jetzt liegt es an Bund & Ländern, in nur 1 Jahr einen überzeugenden Plan vorzulegen.

Das Aktionsprogramm Natürlicher Klimaschutz bleibt weit hinter seinen Potentialen. Jetzt werden neue Wege aufgezeigt, in neuer Stellungnahme des Wissenschaftlichen Beirates zu natürlichem Klimaschutz. www.wissenschaftlicher-beirat-fuer-natuerlichen-klimaschutz.de/wp-content/u... #ANK #Ökosysteme

It has been dry in June throughout Germany - confirmed by data from the @dwdderwetterdienst.bsky.social. Look at that precipitation deficit! --> www.dwd.de/EN/climate_e...

🏝️ Islands face rising climate threats—but are understudied. Our global review shows most climate impacts harm island ecosystem services, especially marine. Nature-based solutions offer hope, but gaps in knowledge + policy remain. Time to act. #ClimateResilience link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Knowledge Syntheses are gaining importance as more and more knowledge is published. Especially for climate change assessments. Great work published in @nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...
