Interessant ist auch der Ansatz in #UK mit dem "#Biodiversity Net Gain" Gesetz:

Bevor ein Wald abgeholzt wird, um eine Wohnsiedlung zu bauen, wird erst die Biodiversität gemessen (z.B. Audio-Analyse zum Vögeldiversität).
Nach dem Bau der Wohnsiedlung wird wieder gemessen und dann sind die Auftraggeber gesetzlich dazu verpflichtet einen Ausgleich zu schaffen. Also ein "Net Gain", damit insgesammt mehr Biodiversität vorhanden ist, als vor der Maßnahme.

and Oxygen Conservation on using ArcGIS to support #BiodiversityNetGain, which aims to increase biodiversity with every development"

Going to the #EsriUKAC tomorrow?

I'm looking forward to hearing more about their #biodiversitynetgain and #sweet tools. Also looking forward to hearing more from #bluesky about their UK hedgerow data.....

Spartina Saltmarsh has just become my new nemisis....

In a complete twist of fate, whilst working on this #BiodiversityNetGain data, I found that there are a plethora of surveyed and priority ponds
.....NON-Priority ponds however are something of a myth....I thought these were available in a few open UK datasets!
Am I the only one looking at #BiodiversityNetGain in the #UK and thinking that there is a wealth of #geospatial data but it is poorly described and recorded?

The pressure to capitalise on nature

The pressure to financialise nature and offset destructive practices, including carbon and nature credits, and biodiversity net gain

Lotus corniculatus sticks out during droughts, maintaining green foliage and inflorescences while the surrounding grass looks all parched. This helps explain it:

Lotus corniculatus. A root system thats goes 1 m deep. Just sown loads into my lawn, lots of yellow flowers and wide distribution hoping it helps with #climateresilience and #biodiversitynetgain
