While there is much debate on transformative change among academics and policymakers, the discussion how to govern such still in its infancy. This article argues that governance needed enable necessary for achieving global sustainability goals. Based a literature review, unpacks this concept of governance. It is: integrative, ensure local solutions also have sustainable impacts elsewhere (across scales, places, issues sectors); inclusive, empower those whose interests are currently not being...
Abstract Transformative governance is key to addressing the global environmental crisis. We explore how transformative of complex biodiversity–climate–society interactions can be achieved, drawing on first joint report between Intergovernmental Panel Climate Change and Science-Policy Platform Biodiversity Ecosystem Services reflect current opportunities, barriers, challenges for governance. identify principles under a nexus frame using four case studies: forest ecosystems, marine urban...

Abstract Decades of research and policy interventions on biodiversity have insufficiently addressed the dual issues degradation social justice. New approaches are therefore needed. We devised a action agenda that calls for collective task revisiting toward goal sustaining diverse just futures life Earth. Revisiting involves critically reflecting past present research, policy, practice concerning to inspire creative thinking about future. The was developed through 2‐year dialogue process...
Abstract The concept of the ‘shifting baseline syndrome’ has assisted researchers in understanding how expectations for health environment deteriorate, despite known, often widespread, and significant impacts from human activities. been used to demonstrate that more accurate assessment historical ecosystem decline can be achieved by balancing contemporary perceptions with other sorts evidence, is now widely referred studies assessing environmental change. potential this as a model examining...
To date, marine genetic resources (MGR) have proven to be the most controversial aspect of package deal structure ongoing negotiations a legally binding instrument for conservation and sustainable use biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction (BBNJ). This has led proliferation scholarly work characterizing debate on MGR along developed developing state lines. By applying middle power international relations theory Australian delegation’s conduct in negotiations, this article aims challenge...
Deltas are experiencing profound demographic, economic and land use changes human-induced catchment climate change. Bangladesh exemplifies these difficulties through multiple risks including subsidence/sea-level rise, temperature changing precipitation patterns, as well management of the Ganges Brahmaputra catchments. There is a growing population economy driving numerous more local changes, while dense rural poverty remain significant. Identifying appropriate policy planning responses...
Effective law for complex environmental issues requires a combination of sound policy, sophisticated doctrinal scholarship and effective institutional arrangements that suit the social economic context. Together, these elements create basis good resource governance. This article sets out criteria define an governance framework transboundary management. To advance legal scholarship, access to such can help frame comprehensive strategies more law. The extends previously developed conservation...
Extinction. It is almost as though we dare not speak its name. Instead, words such 'threatened' and 'endangered' are entrenched in conservation law management markers of risk. These terms so that the nature risk easily forgotten. On reflection, classifications status denote, course, how close species from disappearing forever. However, our familiarity with categories biodiversity decline, lack explicit objectives to prevent avoidable extinctions within failure laws directly tackle drivers...
Abstract In Indonesia, swidden practices have been part of traditional rice farming for centuries. Swidden agriculture is a fundamental all remaining large tropical forests and provides critical form biodiversity-friendly agriculture. Meanwhile, peatland degradation land conversion oil palm plantation created an annual transboundary environmental disaster in Southeast Asia. This article adopts transnational lens to highlight the complex multi-scale interactions that perpetuate recurring air...
The extinction of species and ecological systems is occurring more quickly than any other time in human history. Our social cultural institutions the concepts framings that underpin them are key contributors to modern extinctions. In this paper we ask how engaging explicitly with enables a critical hopeful rethinking environmental law. We explore potential question by summarising categorising literature discusses provides useful frame moral compass for interrogating law rules, ambitions....
