    More than two million accepted species are now listed in the open-access Catalogue of Life (go.nature.com/3ym3h2g). This achievement addresses a major impediment to the management of biodiversity data by presenting an almost complete index of accepted names and known synonyms.

    Initiatives by the European Commission to restore the continent’s degraded areas (J. Cortina-Segarra et al. Nature 535, 231; 2016) have proved disappointing. As the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration gathers momentum, the commission is preparing a law that has legally binding targets. To underscore the urgency, some 1,400 European scientists and 30 expert networks and institutions have signed a declaration by the Society for Ecological Restoration Europe (see go.nature.com/3st6k88).
