Biodiversity and global climate change are intrinsically linked as climate change acts as a primary threat to biodiversity [1], while ecosystems with higher biodiversity exhibit greater resilience against climate-induced shifts [2]. Frameworks like the ICBF are specifically designed to address these two issues in tandem due to their shared status as critical sustainability challenges [3] and their complex, reciprocal impacts on ecosystem stability {fact:1, fact:8}.

An integrated climate-biodiversity framework to improve planning ... ecologyandsociety.org 4 facts
procedureThe procedure to create the Integrated Climate-Biodiversity Framework (ICBF) involved: (1) conducting a Google Scholar search using the terms “climate change”, “biodiversity”, “co-benefits”, “trade-offs”, and “review”; (2) short-listing reviews that referred to both climate action and biodiversity strategies and outcomes; (3) reducing the initial selection of 22 papers to 16 by removing those with vague discussions of strategies and policies; (4) enriching the selection with five additional papers that used survey or systems mapping approaches or focused on the intersection of climate and biodiversity; (5) importing the final 21 papers into Mendeley (v.1.19.4) reference management software; and (6) identifying co-benefits and trade-offs using a thematic coding approach categorized as “strategies” or “outcomes”.
claimThe authors of the Integrated Climate-Biodiversity Framework (ICBF) synthesized multiple literature reviews because most existing reviews focus on either climate change or biodiversity individually, whereas the ICBF aims to synthesize both, and because many reviews are limited to specific sectors like agriculture or forestry.
claimClimate change is a major threat to global ecosystems, which implies that effective climate action strategies can indirectly benefit biodiversity.
claimThe Integrated Climate-Biodiversity Framework (ICBF) aligns policy and planning with climate change and biodiversity objectives, which are identified as critical sustainability issues by Rockström et al. (2009), Steffen et al. (2015), the IPCC (2018), and the IPBES (2019).
ESS Subtopic 6.2: Climate change – Causes and Impacts mrgscience.com 3 facts
claimEcosystems with greater biodiversity are more resilient to climate change because multiple species can fill similar ecological roles, ensuring function is maintained even if some species are lost.
claimClimate change impacts ecosystems at local, regional, and global scales by altering ecosystem resilience, shifting biomes, and changing species composition, productivity, and biodiversity.
claimClimate change causes precipitation to decline in certain areas, which leads to the expansion of drylands and the conversion of productive land into desert, resulting in reduced local biodiversity and negative impacts on agriculture, including food and water shortages for human populations.

quoteGeoff Scott stated: "The global climate crisis has led to a decline in biodiversity while concurrently amplifying environmental stressors with significant implications for human health. Of particular concern are the climate change effects on soil health, which affects not only agriculture but also natural ecosystems."
