Nature is perceived and valued in starkly different often conflicting ways. This paper presents the rationale for inclusive valuation of nature's contributions to people (NCP) decision making, as well broad methodological steps doing so. While developed within context Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity Ecosystem Services (IPBES), this approach more widely applicable initiatives at knowledge–policy interface, which require a pluralistic recognizing diversity values. We argue that...

Abstract Twenty-five years since foundational publications on valuing ecosystem services for human well-being 1,2 , addressing the global biodiversity crisis 3 still implies confronting barriers to incorporating nature’s diverse values into decision-making. These include powerful interests supported by current norms and legal rules such as property rights, which determine whose of nature are acted on. A better understanding how why is (under)valued more urgent than ever 4 . Notwithstanding...

Despite globally agreed sustainability goals, advocacy for specific pathways of action remains highly contested. Disagreement about how best to advance can produce constructive debate but also lead marginalization, conflict, and inaction. This review uncovers different "values nature" underpin allegiance sustainability. It analyzes four selected pathways: (1) Green Economy, (2) Nature Protection, (3) Earth Stewardship Biocultural Diversity, (4) Degrowth Post-Growth. We identify these diverge...

Forest degradation poses a greater ecological threat than deforestation, with forest fragmentation being key concern. Fragmentation breaks vast tracts into smaller, isolated patches, jeopardizing biodiversity. A study in Haryana's sub-Himalayan region analysed using satellite data from Landsat-7 ETM+ (2001) and Landsat-8 OLI (2021). Geospatial methods, employing tools like QGIS, ArcGIS, FRAGSTAT, evaluated landscape metrics dynamics. Over 20 years, area significantly declined, particularly...

Abstract Plants response to various biotic and abiotic factors requires not only the de novo synthesis of proteins enzymes but also their precise timely degradation. The latter is achieved through protein degradation machinery such as ubiquitin proteasome pathway (UPS). UPS plays a central role in maintaining cellular physiology orchestrating plant stresses responses. regulates all stages defense from pathogen perception mounting response, this make suitable candidate for host manipulation....

Ecological character and wise use are central tenets underpinning the Ramsar Convention’s global wetland ambitions. In this paper, we postulate that, given on-going progressive degradation destruction of wetlands, these concepts require reframing. So as to overcome human–nature dualism, which underpins current conservation, propose that wetlands need be placed within a social–ecological framing can accommodate plurality worldviews value systems. This reframing broadens definition ecological...
