Policy Practicum: Nature-Based Climate Solutions Policy Lab (809R): Nature-based climate solutions can enhance the natural proclivity of landscapes and seascapes to combat climate change by removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere while generating co-benefits such as biodiversity, cleaner air and water, and improved resilience in the face of destructive climate impacts. Yet "nature-based climate solutions" (NbS) are not well-defined and a general lack of understanding, experience and information-sharing about NbS is holding back their adoption. In addition, U.S. laws and policies can limit the deployment of NbS. In this policy lab we will work with a non-profit client that invests in a large number of NbS and is interested in identifying and overcoming barriers that are constraining their investments, and in improving how they measure, monitor and verify the climate and other benefits associated with NbS projects.
