As countries scale up climate action, they face the challenge of expanding renewable power while tackling biodiversity loss. Transitioning away from fossil fuels can reduce climate-related pressure on biodiversity but brings its own risks. If not carefully managed, the increase in renewable power infrastructure could undermine efforts to halt and reverse biodiversity loss. How does renewable power infrastructure impact biodiversity? How can countries plan a power sector transition that aligns with both climate and biodiversity goals? What policy instruments can guide the renewable power industry to mitigate adverse impacts and seek positive outcomes for biodiversity? Join us at our next OECD Green Talks LIVE on 30 January 2024 from 15:00 to 16:00 CET for the launch of the OECD report Mainstreaming Biodiversity into Renewable Power Infrastructure. OECD Environment Biodiversity Policy Analyst and author Edward Perry will present key findings and recommendations from the report and will be joined by country experts to discuss how to protect biodiversity as we scale up renewable power. The webinar will be moderated by Jo Tyndall, Director of the OECD Environment Directorate. The report synthesises evidence on biodiversity impacts from renewable power infrastructure, with a focus on solar power, wind power and powerlines. Drawing on good practice insights from across the globe, it offers governments recommendations for mainstreaming biodiversity into power sector planning and policy.

African cities face two key transitions: urbanisation and climate change. How can African cities urbanise resiliently and sustainably, and ultimately – be liveable? Green spaces are one lever action at the disposal of cities, which are often overlooked and underappreciated in the competition for land when urbanising. What are the dynamics between green spaces and urbanisation in African cities? What is the potential for green spaces to boost resilience to extreme weather, like heat waves, and cities’ sustainability, such as pollution regulation? Join Brilé Anderson from the OECD SWAC Directorate and Dr. Jorge Patiño from Peak Urban at the University of Medellin, along with other OECD experts, on 5 July at 15:00 CEST to discuss these trends, the potential role that green spaces can play in the future of African cities, and what lessons can be learned from other parts of the globe. The presentation will be based on the forthcoming OECD study on green spaces: Boosting resilience in African cities: Role of green spaces.
