This POSTnote summarises the links between biodiversity loss and climate change, and outlines options for jointly addressing their drivers and effects on a global scale.

Key Points: 
  • This POSTnote summarises the links between biodiversity loss and climate change, and outlines options for jointly addressing their drivers and effects on a global scale.
  • Climate change and biodiversity are interdependent; climate change can contribute to biodiversity loss, and biodiversity loss can make climate change and its effects worse.
  • The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) suggests more protection and restoration of ecosystems is needed to meet the mitigation and adaptation objectives of the Paris Agreement.
  • This POSTnote summarises the interactions between biodiversity and climate change, the gloabl opportunities and challenges for jointly addressing their effects and drivers, and their inclusion in international environmental frameworks.
