The Pulse of the Planet

NatureServe, GEO BON and EcoHealth Alliance present a series of webinars delivered by the world's leading experts in biodiversity science. The webinar topics focus on our ability to measure the pulse of the planetary living system. Our goal is to establish the basis for a knowledge-sharing platform in the Western Hemisphere that breaks down geographical barriers while keeping our carbon footprint to a minimum.
