Ecosystem services and Biodiversity - Science for Environment Policy

[@joevincentbumosao8106]

An international research team has for the first time linked glacier-fed mountain rivers with higher rates of plant material decomposition, a major process in the global carbon cycle.As mountain glaciers melt, water is channelled into rivers downstream. But with global warming accelerating the loss of glaciers, rivers have warmer water temperatures and are less prone to variable water flow and sediment movement. These conditions are then much more favourable for fungi to establish and grow.

Thanks

What a shame forest fruits intensive farming in the video, strawberry industrial agriculture in Huelva (South Spain) is drying Doñana's World Heritage Aquifer. And nothing left to do to stop it, the lobby is so powerful, enployment is so neccessary, decision makers are hands tied....

It is sad to see that the Directorate General of Environment mixes everything and gets to misguided communications. Europe does not distroy its forests and has a high level of environmental standards, nowhere to be found in such a big trading block around the world. Is the gentleman going to explain where should we find the food/feed/fiber to adress the challenge to contibute to global food security/decarbonisation of economy? Of course not, because he is not concerned with agriculture, and the reality of trade-offs. He just says cynically to end strawberries, kill the downstream economy from that cultivation, send the farmers and their families to the finance minister to beg for benefits, and of course send the production of those strawberries to western Africa, Turkey etc where the environmental standards will outmake all the 'biodiversity gains' made in Europe. Not to mention the social standards of the farmers in Europe and in third countries. It is all simple for the eurocrats and scientists. Maybe with their salaries it is so...

[@sarahazaria4025]

that's a good point-- this gentleman did leave out many important aspects of the situation. However, those of us who can, need to set an example for the rest of the world: an example of sustainable society. A society that uses nature to it's advantage without disadvantaging nature.

[@rurazar1686]

​@@sarahazaria4025 Reminds me of an argument I read from a paper. If humans continue to unsustainably "modify" the environment to fit our needs, then environmental degradation and other harmful effects of anthropogenic disturbance would be a stone's throw away.
