goals.</h2> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; grid-column: 2 / span 10; word-break: break-word; z-index: 1; margin-top: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Tiempos, serif;

text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">Over the past two weeks, leaders from more than 175 countries have gathered in Cali, Colombia, for the 16th gathering of parties to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity. The topic at hand? Preventing the utter collapse of nature, which is well underway, according to a wide body of research. </p> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; grid-column: 2 / span 10; word-break: break-word; z-index: 1; margin-top: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Tiempos, serif; font-size: 20px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(247, 247, 247); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">A suite of strategies could help prevent this, but they cost money—and lots of it. Experts estimate that we will need roughly $700 billion each year to fund the scale of conservation necessary to combat widespread biodiversity loss, on top of what countries already spend. </p> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; grid-column: 2 / span 10; word-break: break-word; z-index: 1; margin-top: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Tiempos, serif; font-size: 20px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(247, 247, 247); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">One of the main agenda items at the UN biodiversity talks is figuring out where this money will come from. The meeting is set to end today, but talks are ongoing. While there was some progress on this front, countries are still at odds about who will bear the brunt of these costs—and how.</p> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; grid-column: 2 / span 10; word-break: break-word; z-index: 1; margin-top: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Tiempos, serif; font-size: 20px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(247, 247, 247); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><strong style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">Closing the Gap:<span> </span></strong>Members that signed on to the UN’s Convention on Biological Diversity (a treaty from which<span> </span><a href="https://www.vox.com/down-to-earth/379295/cop16-biodiversity-why-us-global-treaty-protect-nature" style="box-sizing: inherit; background-color: transparent; color: rgb(5, 135, 64); text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">the U.S. is notably absent</a>) agreed in 2022 on a historic plan to “halt and reverse nature loss.” This global biodiversity framework outlines more than 20 targets and goals for countries to meet by the end of the decade, including protecting 30 percent of land and seas. </p> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; grid-column: 2 / span 10; word-break: break-word; z-index: 1; margin-top: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Tiempos, serif; font-size: 20px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(247, 247, 247); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">To do that, the plan says we must close the $700 billion financing gap.

But experts say it must also come from donors and the private sector. In recent years, a new and somewhat controversial idea has emerged to create an economic market for conservation through the sale of “biodiversity credits.” </p> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; grid-column: 2 / span 10; word-break: break-word; z-index: 1; margin-top: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Tiempos, serif; font-size: 20px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(247, 247, 247); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">On its surface, the premise is somewhat simple: A biodiversity credit represents a certain amount of nature conserved or restored over a specific period of time. Companies could buy these credits to go toward their own nature conservation goals. </p> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; grid-column: 2 / span 10; word-break: break-word; z-index: 1; margin-top: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Tiempos, serif; font-size: 20px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(247, 247, 247); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">In some ways, it’s similar to the carbon trading market, which enables companies to offset their emissions by investing in a project that reduces emissions somewhere else in the form of a “carbon offset,” which my<span> </span><a href="https://insideclimatenews.org/news/10032024/belize-tropical-rainforest-deforestation-carbon-offsets/" style="box-sizing: inherit; background-color: transparent; color: rgb(5, 135, 64); text-decoration: none;">colleague Nicholas Kusnetz wrote about in March</a>. </p> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; grid-column: 2 / span 10; word-break: break-word; z-index: 1; margin-top: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Tiempos, serif; font-size: 20px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(247, 247, 247); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">However, biodiversity credits are distinct because they are not tied to losses elsewhere and are intended to have a net-positive impact on nature. That means companies cannot use them to hypothetically compensate for the nature that they destroy in their supply chain, except under strict criteria, according to a UN-backed advisory panel.

It is difficult to determine how much conservation activities increase biodiversity in a given area compared to its baseline if the project didn’t exist, especially when you throw climate change into the mix. Therefore, there is little standardization across the biodiversity credit market—and no independent validation panel to approve projects, Aide said. </p> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; grid-column: 2 / span 10; word-break: break-word; z-index: 1; margin-top: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Tiempos, serif; font-size: 20px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(247, 247, 247); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">At this week’s UN talks, multiple discussions centered around developing this market as several companies charged forward with plans to create their own biodiversity credits,<span> </span><a href="https://carbon-pulse.com/337032/" style="box-sizing: inherit; background-color: transparent; color: rgb(5, 135, 64); text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Carbon Pulse reports</a>.
