It's time for this week's "1-Min Climate Snippet" & we're focusing on Nature-Based Solutions. Companies like Pachama and Running Tide harness the power of nature to protect, restore, & manage ecosystems to enhance biodiversity.
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) defines nature-based solutions as “actions to protect, sustainably manage, and restore natural or modified ecosystems, that address societal challenges effectively and adaptively, simultaneously providing human well-being and biodiversity benefits.”
In simple terms, a nature-based solution in ClimateTech is any technology that enhances or stabilizes nature’s way of drawing down carbon. These solutions protect, restore, and manage ecosystems to enhance their resiliency which in turn protects biodiversity and human wellbeing.
Nature-based solutions range from reforestation innovation to kelp farms, and everything in between.
Check out these companies to see how they are using their solutions to address the climate crisis: Running Tide and Pachama.
With the increased adoption of renewables and growing threats from natural disasters, our power grid faces more pressure than ever. Gridware, a cutting-edge energy company, is stepping up to address these challenges.
