This report makes a simple case: because the environmental crises we face are intertwined, our responses to them must be integrated. The predominant policy framing of these crises through the lenses of a suite of climate, biodiversity and land or ocean metrics currently obscures the reality of a single nature-climate system that critically determines human wellbeing; the challenge for humanity is to manage this complex system in ways that reduce overall risks. Addressing one crisis within that system (be it climate change,
biodiversity loss or land degradation) won’t stop the others, while addressing them in isolation is both perilous and inefficient.
