Nature and biodiversity

Canada’s natural environment includes land-based ecosystems such as grasslands and forests, freshwater ecosystems such as rivers, lakes and wetlands, as well as coastal and marine ecosystems. Some of these ecosystems are part of highly managed landscapes, such as farms or urban areas, while others experience less human activity. Biodiversity is an essential part of each of these ecosystems, and support how it functions.

In addition to having intrinsic value, the natural environment also provides critical ecosystem services and solutions to address the hazards of a changing climate. For example, if selected for their resilience to climatic extremes and protected, shade trees can provide relief during heatwaves and wetlands can absorb water and reduce flooding.

In order for the natural environment – including people – to thrive in the face of climate change, we need to shift our perspective to see people as part of and active participants in nature, and embrace stewardship approaches. Our efforts to halt and reverse nature loss should prioritize solutions that help the natural environment to respond to and recover from current and future climate events.

Goal: Biodiversity loss has been halted and reversed and nature has fully recovered allowing for natural and human adaptation, where ecosystems and communities are thriving together in a changing climate, with human systems existing in close connection with natural systems.

Objectives
The objectives in this system aim to reflect both the need to support the resilience of ecosystems with a focus on those most affected by climate change, and the power of nature to provide adaptation solutions.

Human activities are transformed to halt and reverse biodiversity loss, and enhance ecosystem connectivity and resilience.

First Nations, Métis Nation, and Inuit governments, organizations, and communities have the opportunities and means to pursue self-determined priorities for ecosystem stewardship initiatives to adapt to climate change.

The use of nature-based solutions is accelerated to increase resilience and maximize co-benefits such as reducing stress on grey infrastructure and increasing social benefits of nature.
The ecosystems most affected by climate change are monitored, restored and managed to ensure their continued viability and adaptive capacity.
