This is our ninth annual horizon scan to identify emerging issues that we believe could affect global biological diversity, natural capital and ecosystem services, and conservation efforts. Our diverse and international team, with expertise in horizon scanning, science communication, as well as conservation science, practice, and policy, reviewed 117 potential issues. We identified the 15 that may have the greatest positive or negative effects but are not yet well recognised by the global conservation community. Themes among these topics include new mechanisms driving the emergence and geographic expansion of diseases, innovative biotechnologies, reassessments of global change, and the development of strategic infrastructure to facilitate global economic priorities.
这是我们第九次进行年度远景扫描,以确定我们认为可能影响全球生物多样性、自然资本和生态系统服务以及保护工作的新出现问题。我们的多元化国际团队在远景扫描、科学传播以及保护科学、实践和政策方面拥有专业知识,对 117 个潜在问题进行了审查。我们确定了其中 15 个可能具有最大积极或消极影响,但尚未得到全球保护界充分认识的问题。这些主题包括推动疾病出现和地理扩张的新机制、创新生物技术、对全球变化的重新评估以及为促进全球经济优先事项而开发战略基础设施。
