Biodiversity policy needs to look forward, not just backward. 🌍 Our new PNAS piece argues that predictive models - like those used in climate science - are key to guiding effective conservation decisions. doi.org/10.1073/pnas... #Biodiversity #Conservation #PNAS (1/2)

Without forward-looking models, biodiversity policy risks missing the road to recovery. Our new PNAS article calls for predictive tools and a World Biodiversity Research Programme to guide global action. 👉 doi.org/10.1073/pnas... #Biodiversity #Conservation #PredictiveModels #PNAS

#Women in #climate, #adaptation, #meteorology, #ecosystems, #socialresilience, #governance, #riskreduction, #systemschange - this event still needs many strong women's voices. Please show up! If you'd like to volunteer on an expert panel, pls DM me. I'm not organizing, but helping the organizers
