Perhaps the most important difference is the recognition of climate change as a driver of environmental change, and how it has the potential for altering land resources on its own (see Chapter 2). Climate change usually exacerbates ecosystem degradation and a more variable climate degrades ecosystems more strongly. Another difference is the increasing recognition of the critical function that clear property rights play for land-resource stewardship and the crucial role of rural inhabitants in land conservation.Full report is available at: https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/27539 NO https://www.unep.org/resources/global-environment-outlook-6 DS UN Environment Document Repository RD Sep 24, 2026
