This fall, we saw floods from back-to-back hurricanes cost hundreds of lives in the Southeast U.S. and ongoing fires erase large swathes of the Amazon rainforest. These are unnatural disasters, fueled by climate change. Faced with this unnatural new normal, nature is our best line of defense.

Wetlands, mangroves and reefs protect coastlines from storm damage and rising seas. Forests help regulate rain patterns to prevent droughts and floods. And every one of these vital ecosystems stores vast amounts of carbon, helping stave off further climate change.
