Coverage of net primary production since March 21, 2021.

Major 'State of the Planet' report out in advance of first Nobel Prize Summit

"..."In a single human lifetime, largely since the 1950s, we have grossly simplified the biosphere, a system that has evolved over 3. 8 billion years. Now just a few plants and animals dominate the land and oceans," says lead author Carl Folke, director of the Beijer Institute of Ecological Economics and chair of the Stockholm Resilience Centre at Stockholm University..."
