Please share this great presentation hosted by Michigan Clinicians for Climate Action

While most attention is on the role that the federal or state governments play in climate policy, implementation of the infrastructure needed for a clean energy transition is entirely done at the local level. For the last decade Sarah Mills and her team at the UM Center for EmPowering Communities ha...

This new European study findings indicate several steps needed to enable multispecies justice through Nature-Based Solutions. "First, viewing NbS as relations and an infrastructure of care, treating climate adaptation as part of a heterogeneous network of concerns. This shift conceptualizes NbS as a bridge between humans and nature, addressing shared needs and values. Second, scrutinising the critical junctures where the multiplicity of NbS is overlooked. Third, shifting views, structures, and practices can begin with small, incremental changes that lead over time to larger changes in direction. Fourth, repairing the human-nonhuman system of relations involves identifying entry-points for change within policymaking routines and engaging in a cycle of rethinking, reframing, regenerating, and relearning relationships."

Previous research underscores the importance of addressing biodiversity loss within environmental justice, introducing the concept of multi-species justice (MSJ) to recognise the rights and agency of non-human species. Despite its theoretical foundation, practical applications of MSJ remain underexp...
