For the Protection and Restoration of Nature | Thomas Crowther | Climeworks Carbon Removal Summit 24

Ecologist Thomas Crowther is a professor of ecology at ETH Zürich and co-chair of the advisory board for the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. He started Crowther Lab, an interdisciplinary group of scientists exploring the role of biodiversity in regulating the Earth's climate.
He underscores the vital role of nature conservation and restoration in combating biodiversity loss and climate change.
In his talk, Crowther highlights recent scientific advancements, such as the groundbreaking evaluation of global forest carbon potential, and the launch of the SEED, a biocomplexity index, which enables us to understand the variation in biological health across the globe. These initiatives aim to enhance our commitment to nature and empower individuals, companies and governments to make positive contributions towards biodiversity conservation. Through collective action and informed stewardship, Crowther inspires hope for a sustainable future where nature thrives alongside humanity.
