The Campaign for Nature: Safeguarding Biodiversity with Brian O’Donnell

The world is losing its biodiversity at a rapid rate, due in large part to habitat loss caused by climate change. These dual threats pose serious risks to human health and wellbeing, particularly if global leaders fail to take meaningful and quick action. Our guest today is Brian O’Donnell, Director of the Campaign for Nature, an organization whose goal is to protect at least 30% of the world’s land and oceans by 2030. The Campaign for Nature works with scientists, environmentalists, and policymakers to advance solutions on a global scale. In this episode, we talk to Brian about why 30% is a benchmark number, why biodiversity loss is as great a threat to us as climate change, the highly significant Biodiversity Conference (COP15) which will take place in Montreal this December, and much more. Show NotesCampaign for Nature30 x 30 Sign the 30 x 30 Petition UN Biodiversity Conference (COP15)Rodale InstituteNew report shows why fighting climate change and nature loss must be interlinked (World Economic Forum)Shifting to a Green Economy with Dr. Edward B.
