Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding the value and limits of nature-based solutions to climate change and other global challenges
TL;DR: The rise of NbS in climate policy is highlighted—focusing on their potential for climate change adaptation as well as mitigation—and barriers to their evidence-based implementation are discussed, highlighting avenues for further research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Getting the message right on nature-based solutions to climate change
Nathalie Seddon,Alison Smith,Alison Smith,Pete Smith,Isabel Key,Alexandre Chausson,Cécile A. J. Girardin,Cécile A. J. Girardin,Jo House,Shilpi Srivastava,Beth Turner,Beth Turner +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the promise and pitfalls of the nature-based solutions (NbS) framing and its current political traction, and present recommendations on how to get the message right.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping the effectiveness of nature‐based solutions for climate change adaptation
Alexandre Chausson,Beth Turner,Dan Seddon,Nicole Chabaneix,Cécile A. J. Girardin,Valerie Kapos,Isabel Key,Dilys Roe,Alison Smith,Stephen Woroniecki,Stephen Woroniecki,Nathalie Seddon +11 more
TL;DR: The first global systematic map of evidence on the effectiveness of nature-based interventions for addressing the impacts of climate change and hydrometeorological hazards on people is produced, showing more synergies than trade-offs between reduced climate impacts and broader ecological, social, and climate change mitigation outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Grounding nature-based climate solutions in sound biodiversity science
TL;DR: The current narrow focus on afforestation in climate policy runs the risk of compromising long-term carbon storage, human adaptation and efforts to preserve biodiversity as mentioned in this paper, and an emphasis on diverse, intact natural ecosystems will help nations to deliver Paris Agreement goals and much more.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global recognition of the importance of nature-based solutions to the impacts of climate change
Nathalie Seddon,Elizabeth Daniels,Rowan Davis,Alexandre Chausson,Rian Harris,Xiaoting Hou-Jones,Saleemul Huq,Valerie Kapos,Georgina M. Mace,Ali Raza Rizvi,Hannah Reid,Dilys Roe,Beth Turner,Sylvia Wicander +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that nature-based solutions are key to meeting global goals for climate and biodiversity, and urge researchers to work more closely with policy-makers to identify targets that benefit both people and ecosystems.
