(1 minute crash-course)
2021 – 2030 is the United Nations International Decade of Ecosystem Restoration. This is also the scientific topic for the 2021 Global Science Opera production.
There are several types of Ecosystem Restoration:
Farmlands, Forests, Freshwater, Grasslands, Shrubs & savannahs, Mountains, Oceans & coasts, Peatlands and Urban areas.
Together we will learn more of what we can do, how we and our students can contribute and inspire others to contribute to a healthier world.
