SUMMARY:Graham Saul of Nature Canada: A Case for Nature-Based Solutions in Canada
DESCRIPTION:\nInvesting in nature-based solutions to climate change is a great opportunity to create jobs and build back better as our economy struggles with the COVID19 crisis. This webinar will provide an overview of some of the key dimensions of nature-based climate solutions and emerging opportunities for groups to work together, including a discussion of how we can defend and restore wildlife and landscapes, fight climate change, and contribute to the economic recovery process at the same time.\n\n\nThe world is facing twin environmental crises: mass biodiversity loss and climate change. Although these crises are unique challenges, they are deeply interrelated in both their causes and solutions. While global temperature rise threatens species and ecosystems, the destruction of ecosystems caused by human settlement and activity removes important carbon sinks needed to mitigate climate change. Now more than ever, we need to make the connection between nature and climate change and help people understand how this connection can also stimulate economic recovery. Nature-based climate solutions include actions such as: better ecosystem management; restoring our forests, wetlands, coastlines and grasslands; expanding protected areas; and the development of natural infrastructure in and around our communities.\n\n\nFor the first time in history, the Government of Canada has made a meaningful commitment to nature-based climate solutions. This webinar will discuss how we can work together to move this work forward. This is a critical area of work that can help bring people together to face the twin crises of species collapse and climate change.\n\n
