At this year’s annual NYBG #ClimateWeek symposium, we’re putting biodiversity front and center as a tool for solving our climate crisis. ??

Together with moderator Mauricio Diazgranados, Ph.D., “Nature’s Shield: Harnessing Biodiversity for Climate Resilience” welcomes anthropologist, ethnobotanist, author, and explorer Wade Davis, who’ll share his collaborations with the Amazon’s Indigenous peoples, as well as the ecologically rich zones there that we must protect for our shared future. Afterward, a panel of scientists leaps into the concrete ways that we can HALT biodiversity loss to increase climate resilience, followed by a screening of “Blue Carbon”—a film spotlighting the hopeful conservation efforts focused on the sea’s miraculous ability to absorb atmospheric carbon.
