Recent research assessed that many interactions between climate tipping elements are of a destabilizing nature, leading to the possibility of climate domino effects. In this installment of the Tipping points webinar series, experts will review the current state of literature on tipping point interactions and discuss risks for cascading transitions under current global warming trajectories.
While feeding 8 billion people, current food systems have negative impacts on the environment, human health and on social equality. Join us for this webinar where experts will present key leverage points to mitigate food system impacts and utilize a positive tipping point framework to exemplify how technological innovations, strategic policy design, and human agency can help accelerate a food system transformation.
The Biodiversa+ Science-Policy Forum held in Tallinn on April 16, 2024, aimed to assess the current status of biodiversity monitoring at various scales and foster dialogue between knowledge providers and policymakers.
