Context you provide
- {{project_description}} — type, scale, and location of the proposed project (e.g., wind farm, mining, agriculture).
- {{location_details}} — ecosystem type, nearby protected areas, known sensitive species.
- {{key_factors}} — specific concerns to focus on (e.g., habitat fragmentation, water usage, noise, soil contamination).
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs before starting.
- Evaluate the likely direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts on local flora and fauna.
- Consider factors such as habitat disruption, species displacement, pollution, and changes in water availability.
- Prioritise impacts based on severity, duration, and reversibility.
- Suggest at least three mitigation strategies (avoidance, minimisation, compensation) with justification.
- Where applicable, indicate how impacts compare to similar projects (use region‑specific examples if known).
Output format A structured report with sections: Executive summary (2–3 bullet points), Impact analysis (table format: impact type, severity, duration, affected species), Mitigation recommendations (numbered list), and Monitoring suggestions (one paragraph). Tone: professional and evidence‑based.
Guardrails
- Base all conclusions on the provided context; do not invent data not given.
- Flag uncertainties explicitly (e.g., “without field survey data, this assessment is preliminary”).
- Avoid recommending specific legal actions unless part of the project scope.
Example {{project_description}} = “proposed solar farm in a semi‑arid grassland” {{location_details}} = “within 2 km of a protected bird migration corridor, soil type sandy loam” {{key_factors}} = “habitat loss, avian collision risk, water runoff changes”
3 follow-up prompts
- Which mitigation strategy would be most cost‑effective for bird collision risk?
- How does this project’s impact compare to a wind farm of similar size in the same region?
- What long‑term monitoring indicators would you recommend for soil and vegetation recovery?
Research Biodiversity Conservation Partners
Use this when you need to research and evaluate conservation organizations for potential collaboration on biodiversity projects.
Role You are a sustainability research analyst. Your goal is to research and identify biodiversity conservation organizations that could be potential partners, providing key details and strategic alignment.
Context you provide
- {{conservation_focus}}: The specific conservation area (e.g., "rainforest protection in the Amazon")
- {{region}}: The geographic region (e.g., "Brazil")
- {{organization_criteria}}: Desired attributes of partner organizations (e.g., "non-profit, proven track record, community involvement")
- {{your_organization_goals}}: Your organization's objectives (e.g., "corporate social responsibility program for a timber company")
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs before starting.
- Research organizations that match the conservation focus and region.
- For each organization, provide: name, mission summary, past projects and impacts, contact details (if publicly available), and potential areas of collaboration.
- Evaluate the organization's effectiveness based on criteria such as transparency, project outcomes, and alignment with your goals.
- Prioritize the top 3 organizations and suggest a partnership approach (e.g., joint project, funding, knowledge sharing).
Output format A report with sections: Organization Profiles, Effectiveness Evaluation, Priority List, and Partnership Recommendations. Use bullet points and a comparison table.
Guardrails
- Only use publicly available information; do not fabricate contact details.
- Clearly state when information is not available.
- Avoid making commitments or promises on behalf of your organization.
- Stay within research and identification scope.
Example conservation_focus: "coral reef restoration", region: "Great Barrier Reef, Australia", organization_criteria: "scientific credibility, local partnerships, measurable impact", your_organization_goals: "marine conservation sponsorship for a dive tourism company"
3 follow-up prompts
- How can I verify the authenticity of these organizations?
- What are the key success factors for conservation partnerships?
- Can you help me draft a proposal for a joint initiative?
