An integrated climate-biodiversity framework to improve planning ... ecologyandsociety.org 12 facts
referenceOnaindia et al. (2013) analyzed the co-benefits and trade-offs between biodiversity, carbon storage, and water flow regulation.
claimApplying an integrated lens to planning and policy enables a holistic understanding of sustainability challenges and helps optimize co-benefits while minimizing trade-offs.
procedureThe study by Newell, Dale, and Lister (2022) was conducted in two stages: first, developing an analytical framework for examining issues in the context of climate action and biodiversity conservation co-benefits and trade-offs; second, applying the framework to wildlife crossing and landscape connectivity issues to elucidate opportunities and challenges.
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 integrated climate-biodiversity framework (ICBF) was developed by the authors based on a review of select literature regarding climate action and biodiversity conservation co-benefits and trade-offs.
referenceNewell, Dale, and Roseland (2018) analyze climate action co-benefits and integrated community planning, specifically uncovering synergies and trade-offs, in the International Journal of Climate Change: Impacts and Responses.
claimThe Integrated Climate-Biodiversity Framework (ICBF) is a planning tool designed to highlight challenges, opportunities, co-benefits, and trade-offs in policy and planning decisions, which helps in securing funding for government agendas.
referenceTurner et al. (2014) published 'Bundling ecosystem services in Denmark: trade-offs and synergies in a cultural landscape' in Landscape and Urban Planning, which analyzes ecosystem services in Denmark.
procedureIntegration of climate and biodiversity planning can be achieved by mapping relationships between co-benefits and trade-offs to identify strategies that support multiple sustainability objectives versus those that conflict.
claimApplying the integrated climate-biodiversity framework (ICBF) to participant interview data revealed that energy development and habitat fragmentation represent trade-offs between climate action and biodiversity conservation.
procedureThe study conducted by the authors involved two stages: (1) developing an analytical framework for examining climate action and biodiversity conservation co-benefits and trade-offs, and (2) applying this framework to wildlife crossing challenges to identify opportunities and challenges for integrated planning and policy.
