Renewing biodiversity through people nature

项目摘要

We are in a biodiversity crisis. A million species of plants and animals are threatened with global extinction, and wildlife populations across much of the planet have been dramatically reduced, perhaps by as much as a half in recent decades. This is of profound concern because biodiversity underpins human existence. Biodiversity provides the foundation of our economies, livelihoods, food security, health and quality of life. Increasing numbers of people, organisations and governments recognise the need to reverse the perilous state of our ecological inheritance. However, while there is unprecedented willingness to act, what we do not know is what will work most effectively to renew biodiversity and ensure continued delivery of its benefits. The Renewing biodiversity through a people-in-nature approach (RENEW) programme will develop solutions to the renewal of biodiversity. We will work, with a sense of urgency, to reshape understanding and action on biodiversity renewal across scales, creating knowledge at the cutting edge of global debates and policy development, and influencing national institutions, communities and individuals. We know that understanding of, and action on, renewal must take a step change and we will focus on the agency of people in nature, both as part of the problem and as the solution. We focus on a set of challenges: how popular support for biodiversity renewal can be harnessed; how populations that are disengaged, disadvantaged, or disconnected from nature can benefit from inclusion in solutions development; how renewal activities can be designed and delivered by diverse sets of land-managers and interest groups; and how biodiversity renewal can most effectively be embedded in finance and business activities (as has occurred with carbon accounting and climate change). This sits alongside the scientific and technical development necessary to underpin solutions options.Biodiversity renewal is a complex and whole system problem. The solutions require the creation of a new kind of inclusive and diverse research community, one that transcends traditional boundaries between the disciplines needed to tackle the environmental crises of the Anthropocene. Solutions also need to address the inequalities and lack of diversity found in current renewal practices. RENEW has therefore prioritised partnership building, to allow us to combine research with experiment, learning, sharing, outreach and impact, across relevant organisations and wider communities. Our approach means that practical impact is guaranteed. With the National Trust as co-owners of RENEW, we will have significant reach through their membership, outreach programs and public voice. Alongside other key partners in RENEW, our links are responsible for or have influence over much of the UK landscape in which biodiversity renewal activities need to occur. We will use the many landscape-scale nature activities currently underway (or planned in the near future) to develop learning, as if they were 'real time' experiments. The UK is one of the most biodiversity depleted countries in the world. Our ways of working in RENEW, the knowledge we develop, and the solutions we propose, will be of international importance. The lessons we learn will enable future biodiversity researchers and practitioners around the world to do better science, and deliver fairer outcomes.

我们正处于生物多样性危机之中。100万种动植物面临着全球灭绝的威胁，地球上大部分地区的野生动物数量已经大幅减少，近几十年来可能减少了一半。这令人深感关切，因为生物多样性是人类生存的基础。生物多样性为我们的经济、生计、粮食安全、健康和生活质量提供了基础。越来越多的人、组织和政府认识到有必要扭转我们生态遗产的危险状态。然而，尽管有前所未有的采取行动的意愿，但我们不知道什么才能最有效地更新生物多样性并确保其惠益的持续交付。通过以人为本的办法更新生物多样性(RENEW)方案将制定生物多样性更新的解决方案。我们将怀着紧迫感，努力重塑对生物多样性更新的理解和行动，在全球辩论和政策制定的前沿创造知识，并影响国家机构、社区和个人。我们知道，对更新的理解和行动必须进行一步改变，我们将把重点放在自然界中人的代理上，作为问题的一部分，也作为解决方案。我们关注一系列挑战：如何利用民众对生物多样性更新的支持；脱离自然、处于不利地位或与自然脱节的人口如何从解决方案的制定中受益；不同类型的土地管理者和利益集团如何设计和实施更新活动；以及生物多样性更新如何最有效地嵌入金融和商业活动(如碳会计和气候变化)。这与支撑解决方案选择所需的科学和技术发展并驾齐驱。生物多样性的更新是一个复杂的整个系统问题。这些解决方案需要创建一种新的包容性和多样化的研究社区，一个超越解决人类世环境危机所需学科之间的传统界限的社区。解决办法还需要解决当前更新做法中存在的不平等和缺乏多样性的问题。因此，RENEW将伙伴关系建设放在首位，使我们能够将研究与实验、学习、分享、推广和影响结合起来，跨越相关组织和更广泛的社区。我们的方法意味着实际效果是有保证的。有了国民信托作为RENEW的共同所有者，我们将通过他们的会员资格、外展计划和公众声音获得巨大的影响力。与RENEW的其他关键合作伙伴一起，我们的链接负责或影响需要进行生物多样性更新活动的大部分英国景观。我们将利用目前正在进行(或计划在不久的将来)的许多景观规模的自然活动来发展学习，就像它们是“实时”实验一样。英国是世界上生物多样性耗竭最严重的国家之一。我们在RENEW的工作方式、我们发展的知识和我们提出的解决方案将具有国际重要性。我们吸取的经验教训将使世界各地未来的生物多样性研究人员和实践者能够进行更好的科学研究，并提供更公平的结果。
