Universities can bridge the gap between climate science and City Hall

Local leaders are increasingly ready to take decisive action on climate, but implementing solutions requires aligning those ambitions with communities’ everyday priorities and building trust in the process. Research can play a critical role in this effort, but only if it reflects the realities of urban decision-making.

Europe Says

A South African reserve shows how carbon can catalyze rewilding conservation

That’s what the animals naturally do, right? They graze, they release urine and dung, and then they move. And then you’ve got the fertilizer sitting there on the soil from the animals. It gets absorbed into the soil, and then it gets absorbed by the plants and enhances productivity of the vegetation.
