Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S8 Ep62: The cost of lost biodiversity
Q: Can you put a dollar amount on the impact of the decline in bird population on agricultural productivity?
Yes, it could amount to about 6.3 billion dollars lost annually due to a 30% decline in bird populations affecting agricultural output.
S8 Ep62: The cost of lost biodiversity
Q: How do you manage to get past the problem of agriculture affecting the number of birds while only wanting to model one of those effects?
By focusing on migratory species and studying the effects of shocks to their migration pathways, we can determine the impact of biodiversity separately from agricultural effects.
S8 Ep62: The cost of lost biodiversity
Q: What do we mean by ecosystem services? Why are they important?
Ecosystem services refer to the free support that nature provides for economic production, such as pest reduction by birds in agriculture.
S8 Ep59: Designing markets for nature
Q: What does it take to make this happen, Estelle, because it has to happen fairly quickly if it is going to happen?
It requires legislative decisions and a mandate to align pension funds with sustainability goals.
S8 Ep59: Designing markets for nature
Q: Why are we also considering nature-based markets?
Nature-based markets extend the concept of voluntary carbon markets to recognize the services that nature provides, beyond just carbon sequestration.
