1 Setting the scope of the workshop Hilde Kyrkjebø Norwegian Directorate for Nature Management Nordic workshop on Ecosystem services in forests - how to assess and value them? September 13, 2012
2 Presentation overview Introduction Background Ecosystem services MA and TEEB study International follow-up Some relevant work Aim of the workshop
3 Ecosystems provide services to society that promotes human well-being Millennium ecosystem assessment Largest assessment of the health of Earth s ecosystems Was carried out between 2001 and 2005, to assess the consequences of ecosystem change for human well-being, and to establish the scientific basis for action needed to enhance the conservation and sustainable use of ecosystems and their contribution to human well-being. Ecosystem services - the benefits people obtain from ecosystems
4 Ecosystem services - as according to Millennium Ecosystem Assessment M. Kettunen Underpinned by biodiversity (direct & indirect benefits, resilience)
5 Consequences of ecosystem change for human well-being
6 Ecosystem services - as according to Millennium Ecosystem Assessment M. Kettunen Not appreciated by economy! Underpinned by biodiversity (direct & indirect benefits, resilience)
7 Initiative in 2007: The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB) Potsdam, March 2007: meeting of the environment ministers of the G8 + 5 Heiligendam, June 2007 : agenda endorsed Potsdam by heads Initiative of state Biological Diversity 2010 meeting 1) The economic significance of the global loss of biological diversity In a global study we will initiate the process of analysing the global economic benefit of biological diversity, the costs of the loss of biodiversity and the failure to take protective measures versus the costs of effective conservation.
8 Objectives of TEEB: assessing the value of biodiversity & ecosystem services Draw attention to the global economic benefits from ecosystems Highlight the growing cost of biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation Demonstrate how biodiversity, ecosystems & their services have multiple values to economy, society, business & individuals Show how / help to integrate these values into everyday decision-making
9 Link between biodiversity, ecosystems and services
10 TEEB Policy Options Overview Providing Information Setting Incentives Regulating Use TEEB D1, Chap.2
11 Ecosystem services internationally International environmental governance Convention on biological diversity 2020-targets Strategic plan Decisions (eg. Water and wetlands) Development arenas TEEB IPBES for science-policy interface Research and development Country application Explicit also in EU policy EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020
12 2020-target CBD Take effective and urgent action to halt the loss of biodiversity in order to ensure that by 2020 ecosystems are resilient and continue to provide essential services, thereby securing the planet s variety of life, and contributing to human well-being, and poverty eradication; Benefits and services are reflected in sub-targets
13 EUs biodiversity targets By 2050, European Union biodiversity and the ecosystem services it provides its natural capital are protected, valued and appropriately restored for biodiversity s intrinsic value and for their essential contribution to human wellbeing and economic prosperity, and so that catastrophic changes caused by the loss of biodiversity are avoided. By 2020, Halt the loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services in the EU and restore them insofar as feasible, and step up the EU's contribution to averting global biodiversity loss.
14 Some relevant work on ecosystem services UK National Ecosystem Assessment 2011 National ecosystem assessments / TEEB initiatives: Brazil, India, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Norway Thematic initiatives TEEB: TEEB for Cities, TEEB for Water and wetlands, TEEB paper on natural capital & green economy (coming soon) United Nation Statistical Division (UNSD) - ongoing work on experimental ecosystem accounts, World Bank work on natural capital accounting (WAVES), EEA work eg. ecosystem classification, EU Working group on Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystem and their services (MAES)
15 Nordic Council of Ministers activities, e.g. Scoping assessment on the status and value of ecosystem services in the Nordic Countries TEEB Nordic (coming soon) IEEP/SYKE TEEB for municipalities Valuing ecosystem services from Nordic watersheds
16 Aim of the workshop: To address and discuss different ways to assess and value ecosystem services in forests, with a special focus on non-marketed elements such as biodiversity, climate regulation/carbon sequestration and recreation To address different approaches and tools for integrating values of the different ecosystem services into decision making
17 Workshop: Expectations/challenges/opportunities regarding assessment and valuation. Expectations regarding integrating values into decision making (Session 1) Understanding of important services (Session 2) Share information on experiences and on-going work on valuation in the Nordic countries, and practical applications (Session 3) Discussion and proposals for future work (Session 4)
