IB Green Minds #13: Around the World #2 – Nature-Based Solutions

In this week’s episode of Green Minds, we continue our Around the World series in which we interview students studying the MSc in Climate Change, Management & Finance on climate change in the countries they call home. 

 

In this episode, Lorenzo sits down with Angel Miao, Laurence Denyer, and Qiu Wong to hear about the role of nature-based solutions in climate mitigation and adaptation in Canada, the UK, and Malaysia. Our guests also talk through how climate change poses an existential risk to our most valuable carbon sinks across terrestrial, marine and coastal ecosystems.
