Working Group on Climate Change and Biodiversity Conservation: This research area working group focuses on examining the impacts of climate change on biodiversity and developing strategies for conservation efforts in response to these impacts. They study how changes in temperature, precipitation, and extreme weather events affect ecosystems and species, and work to identify ways to protect and preserve biodiversity in the face of these challenges. The group also looks at how conservation efforts can contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation. They collaborate with scientists, policymakers, and stakeholders to develop innovative solutions for maintaining biodiversity in a changing climate.
