Today on NOW and NEXT:
The Global Tipping Points Report was released today at COP28. It suggests the planet we call home is on the verge of five catastrophic climate tipping points. Professor Tim Lenton, from the University of Exeter's Global Systems Instiute, led the research team.
Lenton says these tipping points "can trigger devastating domino effects, including the loss of whole ecosystems and capacity to grow stable crops, with societal impacts including mass displacement, political instability and financial collapse."
Cheery stuff, right?
So, we though it was time to highlight a Story Studio Network series called Canadian Forestry Can Save the World. That might sound overly ambitious, but there is a role for the forestry sector to play in the battle against climate change. The problem is, governments across Canada are slow to acknowledge it.
In this episode, we feature a sit down with Rosemary Thompson, the Executive Director at The Coalition For A Better Future, and Derek Nighbor, the CEO of the Forest Products Association of Canada, originally published April 12, 2023. We discuss how forestry fits into a more sustainable future and the benchmarks needed to assess our success in combating climate and growing a greener economy.
