Creating leverage to enhance biodiversity outcomes of global biomass trade

CLEVER通过一种新的整体方法来量化生物多样性和主要原材料和加工非食品生物质价值链中贸易的其他影响，确定了可持续转型的新杠杆点。根据《2030年欧盟生物多样性战略》的第3和第4支柱，我们通过在系统和价值链层面采取观点来应对这一主题的所有成果。在系统层面上，我们提高了我们的了解泄漏的影响，在非粮食生物质贸易系统的准实验评估技术，定量情景建模，政策案例研究。在价值链层面，CLEVER与关键利益相关者（即，在研究和创新共同设计中，生产商、贸易商、零售商、民间社会和政策制定者）确定公司和机构层面变革的杠杆点。价值链分析将从先进的生命周期分析中产生“生态足迹”，并加强我们对欧洲、南美和中非之间大豆、木材、木浆和鱼粉/油贸易行为者特定行为的理解。CLEVER影响决策的其他产品和工具包括：（1）改进生物多样性丧失指标，为企业和政策提供信息;（2）增强全球建模平台GLOBIOM的功能，以量化生物质价值链中贸易介导的泄漏和可持续发展目标的相互依赖性;以及（3）支持公共和私人决策的创新行动库-决策者在选择有效增强生物多样性和促进减缓和适应气候变化的治理工具方面发挥了重要作用。在其成员先前和目前参与科学政策互动的基础上，并通过与生物多样性和生态系统服务目标下的其他项目建立伙伴关系，该联合体将利用清洁能源和实验室知识和工具，加强政府间科学政策平台和气专委，并加强科学与工业合作，以实现可持续的生物经济转型。

CLEVER identifies new leverage points for sustainable transformation informed by a novel holistic approach to quantify biodiversity and other impacts of trade in major raw and processed non-food biomass value chains. In line with Pillars 3 & 4 of the EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030, we address all outcomes of this topic by adopting perspectives at the system and value chain levels. At the system level, we improve our understanding of leakage effects in the non-food biomass trade system informed by quasi-experimental evaluation techniques, quantitative scenario modelling, and policy case studies. At the value chain level, CLEVER engages with key stakeholders (i.e., producers, traders, retailers, civil society, and policy makers) in R&I co-design to identify leverage points for transformative change at corporate and institutional levels. Value chain analyses will produce ‘ecological footprints’ from advanced life cycle analyses and enhance our understanding of actor-specific behavior focusing on trade in soy, timber, wood pulp, and fishmeal/oil between Europe, South America, and Central Africa. Further CLEVER products and tools to influence decision-making at the right level include (1) improved indicators of biodiversity loss to inform business and policy, (2) enhanced features for the global modelling platform GLOBIOM to quantify trade mediated leakage and SDG interdependencies in biomass value chains, and (3) an innovation action pool to support public and private decision-makers in choosing governance instruments that effectively enhance biodiversity and promote climate change mitigation and adaptation. Building on prior and ongoing engagement of its members at the science-policy interface and through partnerships with other projects under the destination on biodiversity and ecosystem services, the consortium will leverage CLEVER knowledge and tools to strengthen IPBES and IPCC and enhance science-industry cooperation for sustainable bioeconomic transformation.
