“…Incorporating measures of ecosystem services into assessments is key in integrating environmental, economic, and social policies that build resilience to climate change in polar regions (CAFF, 2015a;Malinauskaite et al, 2019;Sarkki and Acosta García, 2019) (high confidence). Currently, there is limited recognition of the wide range of benefits people receive from polar ecosystems and a lack of management tools that demonstrate their benefits in decision-making processes (CAFF, 2015a).…”

While the drivers of historical decadal variability are known with medium confidence, there is currently limited evidence and low agreement concerning causes of the strong recent decrease (2016)(2017)(2018), and low confidence in the ability of current-generation climate models to reproduce and explain the observations. {3.2.1.1} Shipping activity during the Arctic summer increased over the past two decades in regions for which there is information, concurrent with reductions in sea ice extent (high confidence). Transit times across the Northern Sea Route have shortened due to lighter ice conditions, and while long-term, pan-Arctic datasets are incomplete, the distance travelled by ships in Arctic Canada nearly tripled during 1990-2015 (high confidence). Greater levels of Arctic ship-based transportation and tourism have socioeconomic and political implications for global trade, northern nations, and economies linked to traditional shipping corridors; they will also exacerbate region specific risks for marine ecosystems and coastal communities if further action to develop and adequately implement regulations does not keep pace with increased shipping (high confidence).

“…Increasingly, however, complexity-informed frameworks are emerging ( Patton, 2011( Patton, , 2019Reichert et al, 2015 ;Rowe, 2019Rowe, , 2021 to engage with trade-off s and identify robust environmental strategies at multiple levels, from site-specifi c to global. Typical evaluative approaches include environmental impact assessment, strategic environmental assessment, and environmental and social standards compliance; biodiversity conservation program design; and impact evaluation, which can oft en focus on environmental processes, ecosystem integrity and degradation, and measurable environmental state outcomes rather than considering humannature dynamic interactions ( Rowe, 2019( Rowe, , 2021Sarkki & Acosta García, 2019;Uitto et al, 2017 ).…”

The United Nations is calling on governments, private sector and civil society to “build back better” post-COVID-19. To transform our societies for healthier and more resilient futures for people and nature. It is at this nexus of theory and practice on urgent global environmental changes that appropriate evaluation insights, approaches and methods are needed to nurture new pathways forward. We need new ideas that challenge ‘ business as usual’ to do this. This article argues the Rights of Nature is one such emerging concept that evaluators interested in transformation have the power and means to engage with already in hand.

“…Geopolitical states have high variability in the numbers of threatened species and habitats within their borders and varied abilities to conserve based on financial capacities, conflict, and collective attitudes toward conservation. These realities require consideration of equity beyond the local scale to equity among geopolitical states in global conservation efforts (Sarkki & Garcia, 2019).…”
