Why CT Must Embrace Nature-Based Solutions

By Robert LaFrance, Denise Savageau, Amy Blaymore Paterson and Alicea Charamut

We stand at a critical juncture where the interconnected crises of climate change and biodiversity loss demand immediate and urgent attention.

Scientific evidence unequivocally demonstrates that the changing climate wreaks havoc on habitats and ecosystems, while the erosion of biodiversity further amplifies the impacts of climate change. We cannot address one crisis without confronting the other.
