How do you work in cooperation with governments, companies, civil society, indigenous peoples and local communities to ensure good ecological management while continuing to support the local economy? As people need nature to thrive, how can protecting nature alleviate poverty and fight disease? Collaboration is fundamental to solving problems at scale. Take deforestation as an example. We now have clear evidence that indigenous groups with secure land rights are more effective at preventing deforestation; remarkably, in the Amazon, indigenous and locally-controlled land remains a carbon sink, while the rest of the rainforest is actually a net- emitter of carbon. We don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Instead, we should be asking: how can we support efforts that have already been underway for generations? For one, we can work with governments to grant these communities their rightful land tenure. We can provide companies with new avenues to support this work, either through carbon credit purchases, direct investment or philanthropy. And once communities have requisite capital, NGOs like ours can work with them to help implement conservation plans, build technical capacity and conduct new scientific research. Everyone has a role to play – this work absolutely cannot be done solo. If we fail to work cooperatively – and fail to slow warming – the consequences for lives and livelihoods will be profound. The UN has warned of a “spiral of self-destruction”. Rising temperatures and continued ecosystem destruction boost the

likelihood of zoonotic pandemics. Disasters will upend ways of life – estimates suggest that 9 million people in Pakistan will be pushed into poverty due to recent flooding. And who is footing the bill for all this? It’s routinely the poorest among us, those least responsible for the scourge of climate change. Over the years, how have you built up a network of thousands of partners around the world, and how do you continue to grow interest? These days, much of our new partner interest comes from the private sector and, curiously, I don’t need to do much persuading anymore. A decade ago, my job required a lot of cajoling and arm-twisting. Today, executives see what’s going on – all they need to do is scroll through the daily news to see we’re in crisis. They understand the moral imperative, but maybe more compellingly, they understand that their own business interests depend upon protecting nature and stabilising our climate. Our corporate partners from Apple to Mastercard see that as well – they come to Conservation International because they want to support first-of-its-kind science and they want to invest in projects that can rapidly scale. Here’s one example: Kering, the luxury fashion company, recognises the outsized role that fashion plays in environmental degradation and that the future of its supply chain is
The mangrove center, mangrove restoration site in Denpasar, Bali. This site used to be a bunch of fish ponds and the community has come together to restore natural mangrove ecosystem. This shot is of the nursery. Unfortunately much of these mangroves are littered with trash trapped between mangrove roots during tidal movements. © Conservation International / photo by Sarah Hoyt
