Watch Live Today: The Hill's "The Loss of Nature: A Global Threat"

Sponsored by: Natural Security Campaign | View in Browser       The Loss of Nature: A Global Threat The loss of our biodiversity has the power to uproot economies, make lands uninhabitable, foster zoonotic diseases, and cause competition for resources and regional unrest. The Biden Administration has spoken of the loss of nature as a true and present threat to our security. In his first month in office, the president signed executive orders designed to protect public lands and committed to conserving 30 percent of U.S. lands and coastal seas by 2030. The motivation appears to be there, but are we doing enough? Is the intelligence community taking this threat seriously? What steps should elected leaders take to safeguard the biodiversity of our planet? The Hill's Steve Clemons will be joined by policymakers and national security experts for an in-depth discussion on the intersection of our national security priorities and the global loss of nature. Speakers: Galina Angarova, Executive Director, Cultural Survival RADM Len Hering Sr., Member, Advisory Board, Center for Climate and Security Hon. Bob Inglis, Executive Director, republicEn.org; Former Congressman (R-SC) Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA), Member, Committee on Foreign Affairs Monica Medina, Founder and Publisher of Our Daily Planet Watch Today! 1:00 PM ET / 10:00 AM PT Wednesday, March 24   Questions for our speakers?
