I’m checking with an update of (hopefully) progress on the Agenda paper (attached). This progress is motivated by me giving a talk at a Biodiversity/Climate Change meeting in Switzerland this coming Thursday. Some of us will be there (Michel, Forest, Jane, Andy H…) and the Agenda paper leaders felt this would be a good time to present this to that audience. Many of the attendees will include people actively involved in the recent IPBES reports. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">So, two action items for you:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">1. OPTIONAL: FOR THE TALK NEXT THURSDAY JULY 4: If you have time and would like to comment on this before I present the highlights next Thursday, please do! I apologize for the short notice on this, and I also apologize for sending it on a Friday. If you have any major reservations with me presenting any part of this, let me know. I would like to acknowledge everyone in this group as a co-author on this part of my talk, and if you would prefer that I not do that (or not include your name at this stage) let me know. <b class="">Ideally, before Tuesday July 2nd</b>. <b class="">If I don’t hear from you I’ll assume it’s ok to present this with you included as a contributor.</b></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">2. FOR THE MANUSCRIPT: Please read and comment on this version of the manuscript. I’d like to know how close this could be to submittable. I expect another round to the group for ‘final’ feedback after this round, but let me know if I’m off base. I’ve attached a PDF here so you can:</div><div class="">- read and provide general comments on big/conceptual issues at this stage. </div><div class="">- If you would like to work on text or figures, I would welcome the help and please let me know, I will send a word doc and we can discuss. </div><div class="">- please help me with references and examples! You all know some part of the literature better than I do! Highlighted refs are ones that I don’t have but were suggested, so please fill those in too.</div><div class="">- I still (as always) need major help with figures so if you are inspired, please help here!</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><b class="">Deadline for comments on this draft: July 12th</b>. This is very negotiable. After that I will revise and send back out, at that would be a time for finessing wording, etc (we don’t all have to do this, but a few helpers here would be great).</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Still need to make a final call on where to submit. We’re just over 3000 words now and this seems like a good length to me, but I welcome in put on that too.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Best wishes,</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Mary</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""></div></div><span id="cid:9E364E10-848C-49D7-A3C4-01963B91DE04@ubc.ca"><Agenda paper June 28 2019.pdf></span><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=us-ascii" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">
