$5.5M support for new Canadian ecosystem service network
The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) ensures Canada’s working landscapes remain biologically diverse, resilient, and adaptive
Protecting Canada’s vast wealth of natural resources, which contribute significantly to our national economy, will depend on our ability to manage ecosystems and all the services they provide for human well-being now and in the future. Leading sustainability scientist, Elena Bennett, a professor in the School of the Environment and Department of Natural Resource Sciences at McGill University, has assembled a network of researchers to ensure that Canada’s working landscapes—land actively used for production of resources such as food—remain biologically diverse, resilient, and adaptive.
