Averting catastrophic climate change will require transformational societal change. A key aspect of such change will be in sectors such as agriculture and energy systems. However, there is emerging evidence ((Dunnett et al. 2022) that some options for achieving our climate ambitions risk undermining globally agreed targets relating to biodiversity and ecosystem services. It is therefore essential that future energy and agricultural systems are designed to address both the climate and ecological crisis in parallel. Doing so will require ensuring that land used to meet future energy and food demand does not impact our imperative to maintain and even increase natural ecosystems such as forests. The aim of this project is to develop and empirically test spatial models that assess the degree to which transformational change of landscapes to mitigate climate change can also achieve the protection of natural systems on which human wellbeing depends. Analysis will be conducted at both regional scale to address policy relevant questions for the UK government, and at global scale to examine compatibility between global targets relating to climate and biodiversity. Questions will be examined through the lens of international treaties (e.g UN SDGs) and their regional implementation strategies (e.g. UK 25 Year Environment Plan).

避免灾难性的气候变化将需要变革的社会变革。这种变化的一个关键方面将是农业和能源系统等部门。但是，有新的证据（（（Dunnett等，2022年））表明，实现我们的气候野心的一些选择风险破坏与生物多样性和生态系统服务有关的全球商定目标的风险。因此，即将在未来的需求中既有待遇，也必须构成对陆地的限制，从而使未来的能源既需要固有的。森林之类的生态系统是开发和测试空间模型，以评估景观的变革变化以减轻气候变化的方式，还可以保护自然系统的自然系统，以解决这两个区域范围的策略与全球范围之间的策略相关性，以解决全球范围。国际条约（例如联合国可持续发展目标）及其区域实施策略（例如英国25年环境计划）。
