Climate Quickie: Why protecting rainforests might lead to less climate change and fewer pandemics
Manage episode 381802080 series 2942915
Climate solution alert! Rainforests are a medical, health and climate treasure trove. Over 30 percent of the greenhouse gas emissions reductions needed to reach our climate goals come from nature, such as keeping rainforests standing. So why is it that those nature-based solutions get less than 5 percent of overall climate funding? Climate Curious speaks to disease detective, Neil Vora, to explore this question and explain why protecting rainforests might also lead to fewer pandemics down the road.
Recorded live at TEDxLondon Countdown 2023.
