Nature’s Echo: Thomas Crowther

Join ecologist and U.N. Advisor Thomas Crowther to explore the linkages between biodiversity loss and human wellbeing and the feedback loop of social and ecological regeneration.

At its core, the spread of biodiversity on Earth built the conditions that support all life as we know it. However, as human pressure grows, biodiversity loss threatens the integrity of our entire planetary system. Crowther explores the linkages between biodiversity loss and human wellbeing, showing that economic inequality is the biggest driver of ecological degradation. Yet, when nature recovery improves rural livelihoods, the feedback loop of social and ecological regeneration can build runaway momentum at immense scales.

Nature’s Echo expands on the idea of feedback loops as the forces that shape our world, and, when understood and redirected with our attention, our joy, and our active participation, they can become powerful drivers of regeneration.
