Webinaire : Au-delà des forêts : comment les innovations en matière de suivi géospatial permettront de protéger tous les écosystèmes
27 mars 2024
Dans ce webinaire animé par le WRI, Leah Samberg, Scientifique principale pour l’AFi, nous explique à quel point il est important d’identifier les écosystèmes naturels critiques et de définir des objectifs ambitieux pour éviter leur conversion.
Protecting forests is critical, but meeting biodiversity, climate and sustainable development targets means preventing the loss of other valuable natural ecosystems as well.
In this webinar, organised by the World Resources Institue's Land & Carbon Lab, you'll to hear from experts from the NASA-funded OPERA project, the University of Maryland and others. Speakers discussed how innovative new geospatial monitoring solutions will inform more sustainable decisions about how to prevent the conversion of natural ecosystems while continuing to meet the world’s growing need for food, timber, and other goods.
The panel also featured Accountability Framework initiative Lead Scientist Leah Samberg and a representative from Cargill. They discussed the importance of identifying critical natural ecosystems, the importance of setting ambitious targets for avoiding conversion, and the role that geospatial monitoring will play in this.
