A great shot of the @ipbes.net MEP & Bureau together this week in Bonn.

Also a visual representation of our mission: bringing science & policy together - for people and #ForNature. 🌍🧪

IPBES provides the credible evidence policymakers need to build sustainable futures. 🤝

Kiitos oli hyvin journalismin logiikkaa ja tulevaisuutta avaava - päällimmäisenä mieleen jäi kiitollisuus toimittajien syvää ammattitaitoa kohtaan. Ymmärrän, että koko juttujen tuotannon prosessia ei kuitenkaan voi sisältöjen rinnalla hirmusti korostaa.

Sama tilanne meillä tutkimuksessa.

Finland published the new food / nutrition recommendations last week. The guidance is mostly based on health research evidence but now it includes also environmental consideration. The changes from the previous ones: more potato, less (processed) meat. @sykefi.bsky.social @ruokavirasto.bsky.social

Did you know that non-metal minerals, like sand and gravel constitute the largest share of resouce / raw material use in Finland and in the world?

My first thread on Bluesky 😀
What is the global GHG mitigation potential in 2035? A very relevant question for the upcoming round of NDCs. We analysed it for the 2024 UNEP Emissions Gap Report (Ch. 6).
Conclusion: the mitigation potential is more than enough to bridge the 2035 emissions gap.
