A scoping study to assess exposure of financial institutions to biodiversity business risks and identifying options for business opportunities Mulder, Ivo While the business case for climate change is now widely recognized, the business case for biodiversity has only to a limited extent been addressed. “Biodiversity”, or the ecosystem services that support our way of life, are becoming the next challenge for financial institutions. This report focuses on the specific implications of exposure to biodiversity business risks for the commercial banking sector, asset managers and investors, and (re)insurance firms. It provides an overview of available tools and best management practices to enable financial institutions to mitigate any adverse impacts proactively. The report also identifies a number of biodiversity business opportunities for financial institutions that make both financial as well as conservation sense. A number of recommendations are presented to the financial sector, as well as to other stakeholders, such as NGOs, governments and multilateral institutions on how to further build and communicate the business case for biodiversity to the financial community.

Uno de los ejes para el desarrollo de estos seminarios ha sido partir del supuesto de que en todas las culturas, las mujeres y los hombres establecen relaciones muy distintas, no sólo con el resto de la sociedad, sino también con sus territorios y recursos, o con su biodiversidad. Se articula en torno a cinco ejes temáticos: participación política y ambiental, reconfiguraciones territoriales, conocimientos tradicionales y biodiversidad, alternativas desde lo local y, políticas globales y sus efectos locales. Estos temas se desarrollan a lo largo de 28 textos, desde la perspectiva indígena y no indígena, los cuales presentan las voces, demandas, situaciones y propuestas de las mujeres de 19 pueblos indígenas, habitantes de 11 países latinoamericanos.

Action is needed at the international level and the EU has taken a strategic approach across Europe, by implementing the Birds and Habitats Directives. The Directives are the most significant steps taken so far by the EU to meet its own target of “halting the loss of biodiversity by 2010”. Monitoring, assessing and reporting the success of this legislation is vital. The monitoring exercise presented in this report represents the valuable contribution that NGOs can make. The European Habitats Forum brings together NGOs working to implement the Directives, and represents a wide range of knowledge and expertise on many species and habitat groups as well as experience gained from involvement at the local level. This report will be of use to other European institutions, government ministries and agencies undertaking their own monitoring, assessment and reporting exercises.

It is rich in natural resources including water, wetlands, forests and biodiversity. Managing these resources sustainably is essential to meeting its development objectives of reducing poverty while promoting economic growth. Although the upper Mekong River is internationally recognized as important for biodiversity, including large, endangered migratory fish species such as the Giant Catfish, there is currently very little information about the status of these resources. This report is a synthesis of the findings and key points of discussion drawn from three years (2003–2005) of monitoring and assessment, and identifies key areas of concern that require further monitoring and assessment as well as making recommendations for future work.

  • The Story of Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve
    Scotland’s National Nature Reserves For more information about Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve please contact: Scottish Natural Heritage, Creag Meagaidh NNR, Aberarder, Kinlochlaggan, Newtonmore, Inverness-shire, PH20 1BX Telephone/Fax: 01528 544 265 Email: [email protected] The Story of Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve The Story of Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve Foreword Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve (NNR), named after the great whalebacked ridge which dominates the Reserve, is one of the most diverse and important upland sites in Scotland. Creag Meagaidh is a complex massif, with numerous mountain tops and an extensive high summit plateau edged by a dramatic series of ice-carved corries and gullies. The Reserve extends from the highest of the mountain tops to the shores of Loch Laggan. The plateau is carpeted in moss-heath and is an important breeding ground for dotterel. The corries support unusual artic- alpine plants and the lower slopes have scattered patches of ancient woodland dominated by birch. Located 45 kilometres (km) northeast of Fort William and covering nearly 4,000 hectares (ha), the Reserve is owned and managed by Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH). Creag Meagaidh has been a NNR since 1986 and during the last twenty years SNH has worked to restore natural habitats, particularly woodland, on the Reserve. Like much of the Highlands, the vegetation has been heavily grazed for centuries, so it was decided to reduce the number of grazing animals by removing sheep and culling red deer. The aim was not to eliminate grazing animals altogether, but to keep numbers at a level that allowed the habitats, especially the woodland, to recover.

  • Wetland Action Plan for British Columbia
    Wetland Action Plan for British Columbia IAN BARNETT Ducks Unlimited Kamloops, 954 A Laval Crescent, Kamloops, BC, V2C 5P5, Canada, email [email protected] Abstract: In the fall of 2002, the Wetland Stewardship Partnership was formed to address the need for improved conservation of wetland ecosystems (including estuaries) in British Columbia. One of the first exercises undertaken by the Wetland Stewardship Partnership was the creation of a Wetland Action Plan. The Wetland Action Plan illustrates the extent of the province's wetlands, describes their value to British Columbians, assesses threats to wetlands, evaluates current conservation initiatives, and puts forth a set of specific actions and objectives to help mitigate wetland loss or degradation. It was determined that the most significant threats to wetlands usually come from urban expansion, industrial development, and agriculture. The Wetland Stewardship Partnership then examined which actions would most likely have the greatest positive influence on wetland conservation and restoration, and listed nine primary objectives, in order of priority, in a draft ‘Framework for Action’. Next, the partnership determined that meeting the first four of these objectives could be sufficient to provide meaningful and comprehensive wetland protection, and so, committed to working together towards enacting specific recommendations in relation to these objectives. These four priority objectives are as follows: (1) Work effectively with all levels of government to promote improved guidelines and stronger legislative frameworks to support wetlands conservation; (2) Provide practical information and recommendations on methods to reduce impacts to wetlands to urban, rural, and agricultural proponents who wish to undertake a development in a wetland area; (3) Improve the development and delivery of public education and stewardship programs that encourage conservation of wetlands, especially through partnerships; and (4) Conduct a conservation risk assessment to make the most current inventory information on the status of B.C.

  • Open Mosaic Habitats High Value Guidance: When Is Brownfield Land of ‘High Environmental Value’?
    Open mosaic habitats high value guidance: when is brownfield land of ‘high environmental value’? Wildlife and Countryside Link Wildlife and Countryside Link (Link) brings together 45 voluntary organisations concerned with the conservation and protection of wildlife and the countryside. Our members practise and advocate environmentally sensitive land management, and encourage respect for and enjoyment of natural landscapes and features, the historic and marine environment and biodiversity. Taken together our members have the support of over 8 million people in the UK and manage over 750,000 hectares of land. This guidance is supported by the following nine organisations: Amphibian and Reptile Conservation British Mountaineering Council Buglife – The Invertebrate Conservation Trust Butterfly Conservation Campaign to Protect Rural England Open Spaces Society Royal Society for the Protection Birds The Ramblers The Wildlife Trusts Introduction Redeveloping brownfield land can provide sustainable development opportunities, reduce pressure on the Green Belt and other undeveloped land, and offer chances to promote economic regeneration. However, a minority of previously developed sites are havens for wildlife. Two of the UK’s top sites for wildlife diversity, are brownfield land and support some of the UK’s most scarce and threatened species. In many cases they provide the last ‘wild space’ in urban areas for local communities, allowing them access to nature and consequently improving the communities’ well-being. The National Planning Policy Framework is explicit that ‘previously developed’ land, treated as synonymous with ‘brownfield’, should be prioritised for development as long as it is not of ‘high environmental value’. Further clarity on this is not provided and there is currently no definition of ‘high environmental value’.

  • Conservation Planning in the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain
    Conservation Planning in the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain Photo courtesy of Nancy Webb The Nature Conservancy 2002 Conservation Planning in the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain (Ecoregion 42) The Nature Conservancy May, 2002 For questions or comments on this document contact The Nature Conservancy at P.O. Box 4125, Baton Rouge, LA, 70821. (225) 338-1040 ii Preface The information presented herein is the result of four years of conservation planning and represents two iterations of the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain (MSRAP) ecoregional plan as developed by The Nature Conservancy (TNC) and many partners. The bulk of the text describes the process the MSRAP team undertook to: • identify important biological species, communities, and ecological systems, commonly referred to as “conservation targets,” existing in the ecoregion; and • select priority sites, or conservation areas, for biodiversity conservation based on the perceived viability of those targets. It should be noted that a considerable amount of time was spent developing data as few Heritage data, the common building blocks of TNC’s ecoregional plans, were available for the ecoregion. Much of the emphasis on data collection was focused on terrestrial targets. The dearth of aquatics data required that the team rely heavily on the use of coarse filter, abiotic information to identify aquatic systems warranting further investigation. To help fill the gap in aquatics data and better inform MSRAP conservation planning, the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation provided funding to TNC’s Southeast Conservation Science Center and Freshwater Initiative to assess freshwater biodiversity in several southeast ecoregions including the Mississippi Embayment Basin (MEB), of which MSRAP is a part.
