WHAT THE EVIDENCE SAYS
One conceptual paper also deserves a bookmark rather than a conclusion. Researchers in Australia propose adding a “nature-positive” pathway to conventional Environmental Impact Assessment so development processes identify opportunities for measurable biodiversity gains rather than only minimizing losses.
WHY IT MATTERS / OUR READ
