Don’t miss this Forum on the need to protect Our public lands
Public lands are not only perfect for improving our individual health and wellbeing, they’re also a vital means of protecting our planet’s rich biodiversity. Join us on December 6 as we talk with Heath Nero, who is heading up the Wyss Foundation’s $1.5 billion efforts in support of the “30×30” global effort to protect 30% of the worlds lands and oceans by 2030.
Nero will explain some of the Wyss Foundation’s innovative approaches to marking and managing public lands, including successful programs they’ve developed that simultaneously protect natural resources and local populations. “Conservation only works,” Nero says, “when local communities are brought in and see the benefit.”
Whether you’re passionate about the outdoors or not, this talk will help you appreciate the vitality and importance of protecting our world’s wild places — and provide clear ideas on how each of us can support this incredible work.
