To halt biodiversity losses will require mainstreaming of biodiversity conservation across sectors. This paper discusses how to achieve this in the forest sector - perhaps the most important. Full version with the country case studies is now out.

Sadly I think sometimes it does. I have seen some pretty dumb global analyses in high impact journals

Kids, getting some ‘global’ data and making some fancy graphics will not get you a paper in a high impact journal Really, it won’t Surely, it won’t?

It would have to be Shorea or Syzidium. At Lambir, NW Borneo there are 66 spp od Shorea in the same forest. Could also be argued that Syzidium is not a canopy tree as they are more mid-storey. Most diverse genus considering all life forms at Lambir is Ficus with 77 spp.

This report discusses how to ensure biodiversity concerns are integrated into all aspects of forest management, whether forests are being managed for timber, non-wood forest products or ecosystem services

Protected areas make up only 18% of forests so to it is critical we manage forests outside protected areas for biodiversity.

A lack of systematic data for the #biodiversity in agricultural land means monitoring global targets is hard. 📚The Farmland Biodiversity Score could be a critical metric for the post-2020 agenda for measuring & monitoring agricultural biodiversity. 👉: bit.ly/3G8GLy7
