Part of the Biodiversity & Climate Action 101 for Landscape Architects Series. Registration for the full series is free for ASLA members, and registrants also receive access to the recordings.   

Biodiversity is a simple word for the unimaginably complex sum of all life on Earth. Primarily through habitat destruction and fragmentation, humans are responsible for the accelerated loss of biodiversity.  More so than all the other design professions, landscape architects are uniquely qualified to take a leadership role in protecting the diversity of life on this planet. This webinar will briefly review the fundamentals of the biodiversity crisis and, through case studies, explore ways that landscape architects can apply conservation science and design practices to protect and enhance biodiversity.

Presenters:

• Keith Bowers, FASLA, Founder/Team Leader, Biohabitats, Inc. 
• Sohyun Park, ASLA, PhD, SITES AP, Associate Professor of Landscape Architecture, University of Connecticut
