Lessons from Nature as Complexity & Consequence Collide-Ruth DeFries

Join Sustain What host Andy Revkin in a conversation on resilient paths through tumultuous times with MacArthur Fellow and Columbia Earth Institute sustainable development professor Ruth DeFries.

We’ll center the chat on the timely themes in DeFries’ new book, which lays out the properties of living things and the ecosystems they form that help them persist amid disruptive change. Sound useful these days?
