Diverse values of nature for sustainability

Unai Pascual et al.

Summary: Twenty-five years after the initial publications on valuing ecosystem services for human well-being, barriers to incorporating nature's diverse values into decision-making still exist. These barriers are supported by powerful interests and legal rules, such as property rights, which determine whose values of nature are considered. It is crucial to understand why and how nature is undervalued. Despite agreements to incorporate nature's values into actions, current environmental and development policies prioritize certain values over others and disregard alternative ways in which people benefit from nature. This 'values crisis' underlies biodiversity loss, climate change, pandemics, and socio-environmental injustices. The Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) has assessed knowledge on nature's diverse values and proposed values-centered approaches to improve valuation and address barriers to uptake, aiming for more just and sustainable futures.

Streamflow stationarity in a changing world

Yuting Yang et al.

Summary: The study reveals that in catchments with minimal human disturbance, long-term annual streamflow tends to remain stationary in most cases, while in catchments with substantial human interventions, only a small percentage exhibit stationary flow. This underscores the significant impact of human activities on freshwater systems.
