Nature to get out of the climate crisis - how does that work?

In this one-hour online event, we showcased examples where ZSL is developing nature-based solutions to the climate crisis and working with communities to secure a biodiverse and sustainable future for all.  

Climate change is leading to the breakdown of our environment, taking with it the foundations of our economies, food security, health and quality of life.

Promising solutions to the climate change crisis involve protecting and restoring nature. These "nature-based solutions" also help to address the rapid loss of biological diversity worldwide. But how do these solutions work in practice?

Discover more about our work in different countries (including the Philippines, Mongolia and the UK) and hear from the experts who lead these projects, as they reveal what they do and how they do it.
