Abstract Biodiversity loss is considered a major global issue, but at the same time, scientists interpret it differently, identifying varied drivers, solutions, and responsibilities in their published works. These interpretations shape the scientific narratives these scientists use to discuss biodiversity loss, which, in turn, affects policy through ...

Because electricity cannot be traced from specific generators to purchasers, regulators and users propose an approximation. Clean electricity use would meet three conditions, or “pillars.” It must be generated (1) nearby, (2) during the same hour, and (3)
