Your guide to understanding key concepts, frameworks, and standards in biodiversity and environmental management.
What is BIA (Biodiversity Impact Assessment)?
Biodiversity Impact Assessment (BIA) is a systematic process to identify, predict, and evaluate the potential effects of projects on biodiversity—including habitats, species, and ecosystem services. The goal is to avoid, minimize, restore, or offset negative impacts, ensuring alignment with international conservation standards.
What is EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment)?
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is a formal procedure to assess and predict how proposed projects will affect environmental components such as air, water, land, and human communities, ensuring environmental considerations are central to planning and approvals.
What is Green Belt Development & Assessment?
This is the process of designing, establishing, and monitoring vegetated buffer zones—using native, pollution-tolerant plants—around industrial or urban sites. It aims to reduce air and noise pollution, improve aesthetics, and support local biodiversity, often following regulatory guidelines from bodies like the CPCB.
What is IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature)?
The IUCN is the global authority on the status of the natural world. It provides the definitive Red List of Threatened Species and sets international standards and guidance on biodiversity conservation and protected area management.Official Source
What is TNFD (Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures)?
The TNFD provides a global framework for organizations to assess, manage, and disclose nature-related risks and opportunities. It helps guide financial decisions toward nature-positive outcomes, aligning with global biodiversity goals.Official Source
What is IFC (International Finance Corporation) Performance Standard 6?
The IFC, a member of the World Bank Group, sets global benchmarks for managing environmental and social risk. Its Performance Standard 6 (PS6) is a key global standard for biodiversity conservation and the sustainable management of living natural resources in project finance.Official Source
What is the STAR Metric?
The Species Threat Abatement and Restoration (STAR) Metric, developed with IUCN, quantifies how conservation and restoration actions can reduce species extinction risk. It helps businesses and governments prioritize investments and measure their positive impact on threatened species.Official Source
What is No Net Loss (NNL) vs. Net Positive Impact?
No Net Loss (NNL) is a goal where biodiversity losses caused by a project are fully balanced by equivalent conservation gains. Net Positive Impact (or Net Gain) is a more ambitious goal that ensures a project delivers measurable biodiversity gains that demonstrably exceed any losses, leaving nature better off.
What is CBD (Convention on Biological Diversity)?
The CBD is a multilateral treaty with three main goals: the conservation of biological diversity; the sustainable use of its components; and the fair and equitable sharing of benefits from genetic resources. It shapes national biodiversity policies worldwide.Official Source
