[LTER-BioProd] Agenda paper: new draft, and request to present

Wed Jul 10 15:10:04 PDT 2019

Dear all,
I like Laura W's suggested revision to the Figure, and one thing to add -
maybe a distinction between what we are proposing versus what is in IPBES
is that there is no arrow from EF back to BD in IPBES and "nature and
people" versus the full set of feedbacks, in what we propose? Attaching an
idea for a modification to Laura's figure to show what I mean, in case it's
not clear

Best,
other Laura
