The Garrison Institute's first 2022 Pathways to Planetary Health (PPH) Forum, recorded on January 25, featured Dr. Haley Mellin (Art-to-Acres, Conserve.org) and Dr. Steven Brumby (Impact Observatory). Joined by co-founder Jonathan F.P. Rose, they discussed innovative large-scale conservation, biodiversity's role in planetary health, and visualization to support these goals.

The event focused on the "Half-Earth" pathway, which emphasizes conserving 50% of terrestrial and ocean areas by 2050 in biodiversity-rich zones and connecting corridors. This aims to stabilize life and climate, though it is one necessary component of planetary health, not singularly sufficient. Learn more about all four PPH pathways and events here.
