Edwin Seah
Edwin Seah, NbS Partnerships Lead at the SCeNe Coalition, in an interview with Carbon Wire, underscores the urgency of nature-based solutions (NbS) for climate resilience.

CW: In what ways might the neglect of nature-based solutions today exacerbate the challenges of climate change for future populations?
EDWIN: Nature-based Solutions (NbS) act to protect, restore, and sustainably manage forests, farms, wetlands, and grasslands, and can potentially contribute one-third of the carbon mitigation needed to stabilise the climate. They also offer a host of practical benefits for people, wildlife, and nature by protecting biodiversity, valuable habitats, and ecosystem functions that reduce our vulnerability to climate disasters, while providing food security Read more
