Restauration des écosystèmes basée sur la science pour les années 2020 et au-delà
   

This think piece presents recommendations of the Science Task Force (STF) of the UN Decade for Ecosystem Restoration, led by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and comprised of leading subject experts as specific actions to be undertaken by public and private stakeholders to sustain and restore the diverse and functioning ecosystems essential for human wellbeing and the preservation of biodiversity. These are to be aligned with ongoing efforts to scale up the prevention and reversal of ecosystem degradation globally. It provides a framework of questions, key messages and recommendations.

Connectivity conservation is essential for managing healthy ecosystems, conserving biodiversity and adapting to climate change across all biomes and spatial scales. Well-connected ecosystems support a diversity of ecological functions such as migration, hydrology, nutrient cycling, pollination, seed dispersal, food security, climate resilience and disease resistance. These Guidelines are based on the best available science and practice for maintaining, enhancing and restoring ecological connectivity among and between protected areas, other effective areas based conservation measures (OECMs) and other intact ecosystems. For the first time, this publication introduces a common definition and recommends formal recognition of ecological corridors to serve as critical building blocks of ecological networks in conjunction with protected areas and OECMs. Furthermore, these Guidelines also include 25 case studies that demonstrate current approaches to conserving ecological connectivity and ecological networks for different ecosystems and species, and at different spatial and temporal scales.

Plano de recuperação de Uebelmannia buiningii Donald = Recovery plan for Uebelmannia buiningii Donald
    Silva, Suelma Ribeiro | Oliveira, Washington Luis | Medeiros, Marcelo Brilhante de

The Uebelmannia buiningii Donald Recovery Plan, proposed by the authors, represents an example that it is possible to take practical actions to avoid the extinction of a species. With updated information on biology and ecological interactions on the habitat of Uebelmannia buiningii, in addition to consistent data and information on human threats, the authors propose strategies and actions to be developed to prevent the extinction of this species in an effort integrated with local communities and society.

Finding the language
    Newman-Ting, Adelyn Sophie

In this beautifully written story by Adelyn Newman-Ting, we are introduced to Kesugilakw (Kesu) and Bob, who have been friends since they were babies. One day they head out to the forest to play and find themselves in a mysterious place. It is in this place that they meet gwa’wina, a raven, and a wolf named u’ligaan, both of whom can talk and who can understand Kesu and Bob. The animals explain to the two children how the land created Indigenous languages and how both the land and Indigenous languages are at risk. The four of them become fast friends and develop a plan to raise awareness with other children in the community about the risk to the land and languages. They bring all the children together and share information about UNESCO and the Sustainable Development Goals, specifically Goals 4 and 13. Adelyn brilliantly weaves in the importance of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People. She helps the reader understand the beauty and importance of languages by infusing Kwakwala throughout the story.

How to avoid a climate disaster
    Gates, Bill

Bill Gates has spent a decade investigating the causes and effects of climate change. With the help of experts in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, political science, and finance, he has focused on what must be done in order to stop the planet’s slide to certain environmental disaster. In this book, he not only explains why we need to work toward net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases, but also details what we need to do to achieve this profoundly important goal. Drawing on his understanding of innovation and what it takes to get new ideas into the market, he describes the areas in which technology is already helping to reduce emissions, where and how the current technology can be made to function more effectively, where breakthrough technologies are needed, and who is working on these essential innovations. Finally, he lays out a concrete, practical plan for achieving the goal of zero emissions—suggesting not only policies that governments should adopt, but what we as individuals can do to keep our government, our employers, and ourselves accountable in this crucial enterprise.

Promotion of sustainable aquaculture, aquatic animal health, and resource enhancement in Southeast Asia
   

In order to promote and augment regional initiatives on sustainable aquaculture, aquatic animal health and resource enhancement, and to consequently contribute to poverty alleviation, livelihood and food security, the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center/Aquaculture Department (SEAFDEC/AQD) has held a 3-day workshop on the “Promotion of Sustainable Aquaculture, Aquatic Animal Health and Resource Enhancement in Southeast Asia (SARSEA)” on 25–27 June 2019 in Iloilo City, Philippines.

The workshop discussed the issues related to sustainable aquaculture, aquatic animal health and resource enhancement, through “Country reports,” from SEAFDEC member countries, “AQD GOJ-TF6 Research Reports,” which were being carried out under the Government of Japan Trust Fund 6 from 2015 to 2019, and were presented by the AQD researchers, “Special Presentations” from the Invited Resource Speakers,” and “Workshop Discussion” for identification of research gaps and collaborative activities among member countries.

This publication is a product of the workshop and compiles information from the thirty presentations made during the event. Reports from member countries, invited experts, and SEAFDEC/AQD projects supported by the GOJ-TF on the topics of sustainable aquaculture, resource enhancement, and aquatic animal health are bared in these pages. The workshop summary, synthesizing the key points raised during the workshop, should be a valuable reference on the broad challenges we face, as well as the solutions and actions that must be done.
