The Paulson Institute is a non-partisan, independent “think and do tank” dedicated to fostering global relationships that advance economic prosperity, promote sustainable growth, and maintain global order in a rapidly evolving world.
PI's conservation team examines the challenges that renewable energy projects can pose for migratory birds and how governments and financial institutions can ensure that addressing climate change does not come at the expense of biodiversity. www.paulsoninstitute.org/conservation...

Nature is our life-support system. Aligning global efforts to confront climate change and biodiversity loss is essential.

Considering climate solutions in a vacuum is short-sighted and dangerous. Too many of them imperil nature. Solar farms are sited on virgin land. Wind farms continue to be built without simple changes that could prevent millions of bird collisions.

Climate and nature are inseparable. Climate change demands urgent action, but not at nature’s expense.
Nature needs advocates. At this critical crossroads, political will is needed. Action is essential. So is recognition that this work is not optional—it is foundational.

The biodiversity and climate crises continue the dual cycle of destruction, each exacerbating the other. Worse, our efforts to mitigate climate change too often increase biodiversity loss.

Biodiversity is essential for the health of our planet, yet it is in a sharp decline, driven mainly by human behavior.
Nature's destruction presents profound risks to human societies, and, as with any serious risk we face, the rational response is to take out an insurance policy.

Grasslands are teeming with biodiversity and are important carbon sinks. Yet, over the last two centuries, much of the grasslands across the US have been lost to agricultural expansion. By 2010, a staggering 60% of US grasslands had vanished. Globally, grasslands have endured a similar fate.

In the realms of biodiversity conservation and climate change mitigation, natural grasslands hold immense value. For example, temperate grasslands often match or exceed temperate forests in total carbon storage per hectare.
