歡迎來到《建設性聲音》第二季和我們的第一個主題月：建築環境中的生物多樣性。
LISTEN NOW
2023 年 17 月將為您提供有關建築環境中生物多樣性的專家見解。我們已經安排了一組出色的嘉賓，他們將在兩期播客節目（24 月 31 日和 2023 日）中亮相，我們將在 XNUMX 年 XNUMX 月 XNUMX 日的圓桌會議活動中達到高潮。
一切都始於世界氣象組織氣候與能源主管 Roberta Boscolo 主持的特別節目。 Roberta 是一位氣候和永續發展影響者，在 LinkedIn 上擁有超過 40,000 名追蹤者。
如果您想了解氣候變遷及其與生物多樣性的相互關係，這篇訪談很容易理解，同時充滿了準確的科學事實和清晰度。
羅伯塔的採訪應該有助於消除您對這個主題的任何疑慮。
她的工作重點是如何利用氣候數據和氣候資訊的力量
世界氣象組織 generates, through partners and member states, to support decision making in key sectors. The energy sector is her speciality.
The scientific data she and her colleagues work with is central in helping decision making by private and public sector entities on their pathway to sustainability and climate change mitigation
Roberta and her colleagues appreciate how important those working in the
建設環境 他們的職責是什麼？
“..They also need to increase the risk climate resilience of the buildings and make buildings adaptable to the future climate. I think they have a big responsibility to understand the issue and talk with the scientists as well, to find solutions.”
關於
生物多樣性, regardless of what country you are in and what your role is in the built environment, Roberta reminds you of the potentially positive effect that improving biodiversity can have. Whether we label this Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) or simply see it as natural steps to cooperate with nature, at a time when it is so badly needed, what we can be assured of is Nature’s innate instinct to heal and cooperate.
「大自然提供了許多未開發的潛力，不僅可以減少氣候風險和應對氣候變遷的原因，還可以改善人們的生活。例如，透過恢復陸地和海洋生態系統，我們幫助植物和動物增強氣候適應能力。
您還將聽到我們的一些小組成員的意見，您可以在 31 年 2023 月 XNUMX 日的圓桌會議活動中與他們見面，“建築環境中的生物多樣性”

“The globally and instantly recognisable WWF panda logo took its inspiration from Chi-Chi, a giant panda that arrived at London Zoo in the late 1950s. The strikingly simple image was drawn by British conservationist Sir Peter Scott, with a helping hand from environmentalist and artist, Gerald Watterson.
Sir Peter’s rationale for featuring the panda was powerful and practical, ‘We wanted an animal that is beautiful, is endangered, and one loved by many people in the world for its appealing qualities. We also wanted an animal that had an impact in black and white to save money on printing costs.’
That logo and the reasons behind it offer a beacon of hope for me. While pandas are considered to be vulnerable, they are no longer endangered thanks to the decades of specialist knowledge in breeding and conservation efforts carried out around the world.
This story demonstrates that we can make a positive difference.”
Claire Wansbury excerpt from the Engineering a Nature Positive Future publication.
以下是克萊爾與她的同事、阿特金斯高級環保專家喬納森·尼科爾斯共同撰寫的一篇文章的另一段引述：
What we found most compelling in the Dasgupta Review was the comparison of biodiversity (a key part of the world’s “Natural Capital”) to an investment portfolio – no sensible investor would rely on only a few assets for their profits; they would ensure they have a diverse portfolio to secure a return and mitigate their risks.
The same can be said of life on Earth. By cultivating only a few species at the expense of the rest we are putting our prosperity at risk. The effect of humans, particularly in the last thousand years, has been to erode this diversity.
The more we lose biodiversity, the more we undermine the resilience of our asset portfolio; an action that is already having grave consequences across the globe, including our ability to achieve carbon Net-Zero.

克里斯·傑拉德，Anglian Water
Chris is the Catchment and Biodiversity Manager at Anglian Water Services Vice-President for England at CIEEM. Previously he was the Director of Living Landscapes for the Wildlife Trust for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire.
At Anglian Water Services, he works with a team of four people, most of whom are based on the nature conservation wildlife side of the work. Together they identify plans and projects to reduce any potential negative impacts on wildlife, whilst also seeking to maximize the benefits to wildlife of their day to day activities.
They also have a multi-million-pound construction program running, so they need to know when there are going to be problems with things like protected species or protected sites.
This means having a team member involved in the screening of those projects so they can point out all the work that needs to be done to address Great Crested Newts, Bats, Sites of Species Scientific Interest (SSSI) or whatever it is that might be a constraint that we need to manage.
Chris also does climate change adaptation for Anglian Water, which is saying “what is the inevitable climate change that we are going to face in this part of the world, and what do we therefore need to do in order to continue to provide great service to our customers”?
