coexisting with nature

coexisting with nature

1. conservation and lost

   • Environmental conservation was created as a response to the destruction of nature and the environment. Particularly in the last 30 years, many protected nature reserves have been added to the list. The more nature we lose, the more nature we try to protect.

2. example

   • jaguars and bears
     • In the Atlantic forest in Brazil, where agriculture and other land-intensive forms of development continue to expand, a postdoctoral researcher is currently looking at how to restore migration routes for jaguars.

3. impact of consumption patterns

   • Take a fundamentally different infrastructure for urban areas for example, so that wild animals can also live and migrate there. Wild nature can be embedded into our living environment

4. Unsustainable

   • Intensive agriculture, mining, and urbanisation have too negative an impact on nature. Nature cannot evolve fast enough to adapt. Our economic system, based on unlimited growth, is unsustainable

5. Breakthrough

   • People are open to a positive story with ideas on how things can work differently. Besides, it’s a scientific breakthrough. This is the first time that we have taken such a broad view of environmental conservation in connection with the role of nature in economic development. We bring many dimensions together
