October 30, 2024,Redlands, Calif., United States : Esri, a world leader in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software solutions, is hosting a LinkedIn livestream on Thursday, October 31 moderated by renowned climate scientist, Katharine Hayhoe and featuring Oxygen Conservation and Esri UK.
The impacts from a changing climate have become impossible to ignore. How can science and technology be put to use to better understand and mitigate climate change? As governments from across the globe assemble for the UN Convention on Biological Diversity, COP16, join climate scientist, Katharine Hayhoe for a conversation that will shed light on the natural connection between climate change and biodiversity.
In this Livestream, we will discuss Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG), England’s effort to align the planning and development sector with COP16’s global biodiversity targets. If applied globally, the practices and principles of BNG can help countries restore their biodiversity and become more climate resilient.
Hear how our guests navigate BNG through planning and conservation; see how GIS software is used to map, track and report biodiversity enhancements; and learn about the connection between biodiversity and climate resiliency.
