Biodiversity Metric 4.0: Everything you need to know and more

Biodiversity Metric 4.0 has been described as closely representing what the statutory Biodiversity Metric will be, and its publication takes us one step closer to mandatory Biodiversity Net Gain.

Join us on this webinar to hear all about the Biodiversity Metric 4.0 with Julia Baker CEnv MCIEEM, Technical Director of Nature Services, Mott MacDonald; Sally Hayns CEcol FCIEEM, CEO, CIEEM; Nick White, Principal Advisor Net Gain, Natural England; Stephen Panks, Principal Advisor Net Gain, Natural England; Mungo Nash, Senior Specialist, Natural England; Tom Butterworth, Head of Ecology UK, WSP; Dan Carpenter, Ecologist, Digital Ecology & Tanith Cook, Associate Ecologist, Mott MacDonald

Our experts will discuss competencies, policy, the metric’s inner workings and how the metric is only one tool for Biodiversity Net Gain.

Biodiversity Metric 4.0 has been described as closely representing what the statutory Biodiversity Metric will be, and its publication takes us one step closer to mandatory Biodiversity Net Gain.

While some features of Metric 4.0 are the same as the previous metric, other features are different, and some features are completely new. What does all this mean when using the Metric and what were the reasons behind the changes with Metric 4.0?
Join us on this webinar to hear from a variety of experts about Metric 4.0. We’ll discuss the competencies required for Metric 4.0, the policy context of the Metric, the Metric’s inner workings including habitat condition assessments and, finally, how the metric is only one tool for Biodiversity Net Gain, which is ultimately about following the mitigation hierarchy and generating measurable net gains by creating and enhancing wildlife-rich habitats.
