Biodiversity is vanishing at an alarming rate, threatening ecosystems and human well-being. The global goal to protect 30% of land and water by 2030 is ambitious, but is it achievable, and will it be enough? In the final episode of Steering Sustainability, join Professor Melissa Nursey-Bray, Dr Ariane Gienger as they reflect on our conversations throughout the series, discussing community-based conservation in Australia, the effectiveness of protected areas, and what’s still needed for a sustainable future.

Did you know that 7.3% of Australia’s heart disease cases are linked to extreme heat? ISER member Professor Peng Bi has led a groundbreaking study, funded by an ARC DP, that reveals how rising temperatures contribute to cardiovascular disease. These findings will not only inform health policy in Australia but also provide valuable insights for global efforts to mitigate the health impacts of climate change.
