John D. Liu and Paul Beckwith give an update from The #Biodiversity Conference in Montreal, as #COP15 closes in on the final agreement. Raya Salter and Dale Walkonen join them for a look at the #30by30 proposal, which aims to set aside 30% of the world's lands and oceans for Nature by 2030. But what does that mean? Which lands, who will be in charge, will indigenous people determine the actions that are taken, will funds be made available to them? These are among the questions that now hang in the balance.

We can only address the Climate Crisis if we restore the natural systems that make life possible on our planet. The agreement is being hammered out now and should be ready by the end of the day on Friday December 19th.
