SUMMARY:Nature-based Solutions in action: Lessons from the water and energy sectors
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will provide an introduction to Nature-based Solutions\, exploring how nature can support sustainable and resilient outcomes\, illustrated through case studies from the water and energy sectors. \nThe webinar has been organised by the IES Climate Action Community\, an interdisciplinary community that champions transformative approaches to reshaping unsustainable systems. It brings together IES members from across specialisms and sectors for regular events and discussions\, exploring topics related to climate adaptation\, mitigation and resilience. This webinar has been one of a series of webinars exploring nature and climate. Previous webinars can be found on our YouTube channel.  \nThis webinar is free and open to all. \nOur speakers \nDr Matthew Ling is Nature-based Solutions Lead at GHD\, with over 18 years of experience in biodiversity\, climate resilience\, natural capital\, and green infrastructure. He advises clients on integrating Nature-based Solutions into infrastructure\, policy\, and investment decisions\, and leads GHD’s role in SSEN’s pioneering Nature4Networks innovation programme. Prior to joining GHD\, Matthew led the Cambridge Canopy Project for Cambridge City Council and spent nearly eight years at the UN Environment Programme’s World Conservation Monitoring Centre\, delivering international projects on biodiversity\, ecosystem services\, and environmental decision making. \nDavid Hutchinson is a Technical Operations Manager for Galliford Try (GT) Environment bringing 18 years experience of sewer and drainage infrastructure design to the long-standing Severn Trent frameworks. As Design Delivery Manager for the Severn Trent Mansfield Green Recovery project he led the combined internal and external design teams in the delivery of the town wide SUDS implementation to mitigate flooding and CSO activation through natural drainage solutions.
