referenceThe Integrated Climate-Biodiversity Framework (ICBF) systems map is anchored by two primary objectives: biodiversity objectives (habitat protection, preservation, and wildlife health) and climate action objectives (mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions and adaptation to climate change impacts).

claimThere is a lack of planning that identifies the nuanced potential of land or ecosystems to support climate mitigation (such as carbon sequestration), climate adaptation (such as temperature regulation and water flow control), and wildlife habitat for various local species.
